Wool Pellets were created to help Reduce Waste and Recycle Nutrients
We take undervalued wool and give it a new purpose. Our wool pellets are made with one ingredient 100% raw wool. We take the nutrient rich wool and create pellets making it easy to incorporate it into your flowerpots and gardens. Another benefit of using pelletized wool is that as the pellets expand and break down, they leave space in the soil. This will increase the porosity of the soil creating an oxygen rich environment.
