Recycling

We do our part. In continued support of promoting a healthy planet, Omaha Organics recycles all fertilizer bags and containers.

Granular Topdressing Applications

Omaha Organics now offers granular compost top dressing applications. Granular compost is a great way for your lawn to reap the nutrient rich benefits of compost without the muddy mess of traditional compost. The product we use does not contain any manure or animal by-products.
