BioMix is a manufactured topsoil that is highly resistant to erosion.  In fact, it has been used to stabilize soils and establish grass cover on over 100 construction sites since 1990. 

Our qualified soil specialists create a recipe specific to each application.  BioMix is made by blending Fibergro Short Paper Fiber (SPF), earthlife compost and a mineral base soil.  Because of the fibrous nature of Fibergro SPF, BioMix is stable on slopes (even before seed germination!), and will outperform native loam on steep slopes and heavy rains. In addition, in most instances, we can easily beat the cost of an equal quantity of native loam.  

We are so confident that BioMix will work on your site, that we offer a written grass growth guarantee!  Print specification sheets for the two major components of BioMix, Fibergro SPF and earthlife™ compost.

BioMix ingredients are Fibergro SPF (gray, back center), compost (dark, right), and a mineral base soil (left).  Customers provide a suitable base soil (mineral sand or a low quality loam).  New England Organics provides the Fibergro SPF and compost, recipe blend recommendations and technical assistance.

BioMix is easily created by mixing using conventional construction equipment.  New England Organics' soils specialists provide a simple bucket to bucket mixing recipe and are on-site to provide oversight and to help maximize efficiency.
