Green Hills Farm Natural Tea Amendment (GHNTA)
Only in limited production, GHNTA Liquid can help farmers, forestry professionals and others meet their specific growing needs. GHNTA got its start helping farmers get better production and yields from their crops. We understand the demands of the agricultural business. Maintaining crop production and sustaining the environment are constant challenges to modern agriculture. Crop and livestock production removes nutrients from the land and can degrade the soil’s structure and moisture-holding capacity. This can lead to nutrient deficiencies, erosion, and poor water quality.

Made of Class B biosolids, GHNTA Liquid recycled on agricultural lands provides plants with essential nutrients that speed growth and increase crop yield. It’s a safe and environmentally sound way to return both nutrients and organic matter to agricultural soils, providing nutrients to crops and assisting in soil and water conservation.

How it Works

Liquid GHNTA contains essential plant macronutrients including nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium, as well as plant micronutrients such as zinc and copper. GHNTA slowly releases nutrients as the plants need them, and appropriate applications prevent nutrients from leaching beyond the plant-rooting zone into the groundwater. It also helps to moderate highly alkaline or acidic soil conditions and is weed-free. Liquid GHNTA promotes plant root growth and generally helps plants to grow greener, more vigorously and often with improved yields. Because it helps you to grow dense crops & lawns, you’ll get large amounts of straw Bionutrients and other organic matter to till back into the soil, improving soil moisture retention, and erosion resistance, as well as increasing natural earthworm populations.

GHNTA staff carefully design application rates to meet the needs of individual crops. Liquid GHNTA works well on pastureland, dry land wheat, barley, canola, hops, corn, raspberries, orchards, and all turf and lawn applications.

Green Hills Bagged Compost
Our compost is locally produced at our farm in Cromwell using material from our boarding stable (33 horses). The product is horse manure and fir or cedar wood shavings, whatever is available from the mill. Green grass is added for more nitrogen. We use an aerated system with a 5 horsepower blower that blows air into the pile to get the microorgisms working. It is heated to 140 degrees for a minimum of 21 days and cured for another 30-60 days. This helps it to breakdown further. Good compost does not smell of the original product, but is an earthy smell and is dark and rich. Our compost is better than bark as this adds nutrients to soil, whereas bark takes nutrients from the plants and soil. It helps to retain moisture around plants and soil, and is independently tested for nitrogen and other nutrients. Mix with soil to make a rich container soil.
