ClimateGard™ uses cutting-edge microbiology and ethically-derived plant nutrition to produce the same results as conventional fertilizers without the negative environmental impacts. In addition to micronutrients, silica and humic acid, each ClimateGard pellet is infused with a high-performance blend of living bacteria and fungi that will continue enriching your soil long after your last application.
More than 90% of organic fertilizers derive their nutrients from inedible slaughterhouse and fishery materials like blood meal, feather meal and fish emulsion. Not only are these ingredients harmful to the environment, they're actually less easily absorbed by plants than other, cleaner sources.
ClimateGard's no-kill formula is derived from the most ethical, sustainable sources available, and is delivered in an environmentally friendly organic cotton bag with a compostable inner liner.

FAQ
ClimateGard is safe and effective for use in any context, including with houseplants, trees and outdoor flower beds.
ClimateGard is an all-purpose, 4-4-4 blend — but it also contains much more than NPK! Each pellet includes a synergistic composite of humic acid, silica, beneficial bacteria and fungi carefully selected to maximize and improve soil quality over time.
Yes! Animal welfare is a cause that’s near and dear to our hearts, so we have gone out of our way to create a blend that’s as pet-friendly as possible.
Bone meal, blood meal, feather meal and fish emulsion are abundant sources of NPK, but the nutrient package is less easily absorbed by plants than other sources, and lacks meaningful amounts of the essential secondary nutrients plants need to thrive, including calcium, magnesium and iron. Furthermore, many gardeners have philosophical objections to the manner in which the conventional livestock industry raises and harvests the animals which wind up in these organic fertilizers.
Climate Farming is a blend of regenerative, permaculture and syntropic agroforestry practices designed to supercharge topsoil quality, mitigate the harmful environmental effects of other forms of agriculture and sequester greenhouse gases in soil. Central to its methodology is the notion that farmers and gardeners can create all the nutrients their plants require on-site, using the same land that produces their crops. However, setting up a system capable of doing so takes time, and some soils are so depleted that amending them is a necessary first step toward a more sustainable system. We created ClimateGard to jumpstart the process of building a vibrant, biodiverse farm or garden.
