A foundation of our product development is regular compost testing. We use this testing to monitor our process and the finished product. Our material is made from a fixed recipe involving a particular carbon to nitrogen ratio for the initial feedstocks so that we may be certain to achieve an optimum carbon to nitrogen ratio in the finished product.<\/p>\n<p>Below you will find four separate tests. For the compost, there is compost chemistry from the University of Massachusetts, compost biology from Soil Foodweb New York Laboratory, and an in-depth compost analysis including chemistry, heavy metals, and potential herbicide contamination from Wood\u2019s End Research Laboratory. There are also test results on our compost\/topsoil blend. The blend has been tested for particle size and nutrient analysis.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The tests in order are:<\/strong><br \/>\n1. Compost chemistry from the University of Massachusetts<br \/>\n2. Compost biological life from Soil Foodweb New York<br \/>\n3. Compost chemistry, heavy metals, and potential herbicide residue from Wood\u2019s End Research Laboratory<br \/>\n4. Topsoil\/ compost blend nutrient analysis from the University of Massachusetts<br \/>\n5. Topsoil\/ compost blend particle size analysis from the University of Massachusetts<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>This round of testing continues to show that here at Brick Ends Farm we consistently produce high-quality compost. We are particularly proud of the high organic matter, appropriate retained nutrient, and extremely high biological life that you will experience when you use our material.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>We continue to produce one of the highest quality composts available. It is an ideal amendment for soils, both agricultural and landscape, turf topdressing, and for use as a mulch or potting soil ingredient.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>For technical questions regarding the compost, the testing protocols, or results contact:<br \/>\n<strong>Chip Osborne of Osborne Organics at 781-254-7862.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>For ordering call Brick Ends Farm at 978-468-3131.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cOUR 2019 TEST RESULTS ARE IN !.
