Sun-Cocopeat™"The better replacement for peat moss"

Stop! Don’t Use Peat Moss in Your Garden

Peat Moss is one of the most widely used soil conditioners, and although it does the job, it is extracted from peat bogs that take hundreds and thousands of years to form and is therefore not a readily renewable resource. Peat bogs are environmentally sensitive areas that support wildlife and help to reduce the effects of global warming.

Peat lands are Important to the Environment:

  • Peat lands are a carbon sink, and help to reduce global warming.
  • Peat lands form a unique natural habitat that supports important wildlife species.
  • Peat lands hold 10% of global freshwater resources and helps to maintain water quality.


Another drawback of peat moss is its inconsistent pH levels. Depending on where the peat moss originates, it can be too acidic for some plants. Wetting and rewetting peat moss can also be a real challenge for gardeners.
