PittMoss Enters The Michigan Market
For the first time in 2021, PittMoss entered the MICHIGAN market. Our sales team did a great job this winter of identifying some high-value customers in the Michigan area and we are proud to announce that we landed several new accounts, including Grow Generation, Ruhligs Farm & Gardens, Horrocks Farm Market, Little Rapids Farms and Sun & Soil Hydro. To help support those new customers, drive business their way, and create more demand, we launched a regional radio campaign to get the word out and it has led to tremendous success. Our team has sold about five truckloads into the market already and we are getting reorders weekly.
PittMoss supports prospects and customers through education! It’s part of our mission to educate consumers about the terrible carbon emissions that come with peat mining and show them that there is a better, more effective way to grow plants, while also helping the environment.
For example, Charles L. Bethke Ph.D., Soil Scientist, Horticulturalist, and Grower, is presenting a May Series of Gardening Workshops at Ruhlig Farms & Gardens in Flat Rock, MI to help educate customers in the region about the value of PittMoss and the environmental challenges of using peat-based soils.
Dr. Bethke, who consults for PittMoss, has a lifetime of practical and scientific experience in diagnosing soil and garden problems. As the former leader of Michigan State University’s horticulture greenhouse program, he teaches sustainable, regenerative, and environmentally sound growing methods. Whether it be to start a garden, improve soil conditions for flowers, vegetables and plants or to just drive performance improvements with long-time growers, his knowledge and expertise is invaluable!
It really is a testament to the technology that Dr. Bethke’s sees PittMoss as a “game changer” for the soil industry and loves the product so much that he volunteers a lot of his time for customer education events.

While we are so excited about our environmental advantages, we absolutely LOVE the excellent customer results that we are able to quantify. It really is something PittMoss can boast about! For example, our Medical Cannabis independent trial results of 12% greater yield and 4.9% higher THC is a perfect example of what PittMoss can deliver just in one particular industry.
We appreciate all of our Republic investors’ recognition of how game-changing our products are and how disruptive we can be to the current peat-based soil industry. Together we can make a huge difference by spreading the word and continuing to educate growers and consumers!
