What makes Merrill's so popular? Merrill's is the choice soil amendment for gardeners because of its biologically sophisticated soil building properties. Many of Idaho's leading golf courses and commercial landscapers use it by the truckload. Merrill's is proud to be the preferred compost of the Idaho Botanical Gardens and many Garden Clubs, too!

Why? Because Merrill's All Natural Poultry Compost contains essential nutrients and microbes. The soil building potential of Merrill's compost offers gardeners a healthier, natural amendment option and creates a healthy, thriving, living soil environment, creating long term 'grow power'.

With a rich, organic mulch appearance and a pleasant, earthy aroma, many gardeners prefer it over soil aid as an appealing ground cover while treating their soil.
