Made for your land
Soil Solutions makes microbial-rich liquid amendments custom for your soils and plants. Rather than selling one product for every situation, we match what goes into each batch to your ground, your crops, and your goals. The aim is simple: feed soil life so the soil can do more of the work of feeding your plants.
Healthy soil is alive. Beneficial microbes help break down organic matter, cycle nutrients, build soil structure, and support plant roots. When that life has been worn down by tillage, bare ground, or heavy synthetic inputs, a well-made biological amendment can help bring it back.
How we build a custom amendment
Most programs start with soil testing so we understand your soil chemistry and biology. From there we decide what the amendment should do, whether that is supporting a new planting, helping a field through transition to organic, or rebuilding biology in tired ground. Because it is liquid, it can fit into the way you already work, such as through irrigation or with a sprayer, depending on your setup.
Amendments work best as part of a bigger plan. Pairing them with compost, cover crops, reduced tillage, and good water management gives the biology what it needs to keep going.
Who it is for
Custom amendments fit row crop and orchard growers, ranchers working on pasture, market gardeners, and homesteaders alike. We serve Northern California and Northern Nevada. Reach out to talk about your soil, your plants, and what you want to see change.
Getting started
Every project begins with a conversation. Tell us about your land, what you are growing or raising, and what you want to change. From there we usually recommend a site visit and, in most cases, soil testing, so the plan for custom microbial liquid amendments is built on what is actually happening on your ground. You will get clear recommendations and an honest sense of what to do first, what can wait, and how our other services might fit in.

Frequently asked questions
What is a microbial liquid amendment?
It is a liquid made to add and feed beneficial soil organisms such as bacteria and fungi. Those organisms help break down organic matter, cycle nutrients, build soil structure, and support plant roots.
How is a custom amendment different from an off-the-shelf product?
Instead of one product for every situation, we match what goes into each batch to your soil, your crops, and your goals, usually starting from soil testing.
How are liquid amendments applied?
Because they are liquid, they can often go on through irrigation or with a sprayer, depending on your setup. We work out how an amendment fits the way you already farm.
Do microbial amendments replace compost or fertilizer?
They work best as part of a bigger plan rather than as a replacement for everything else. Compost, cover crops, reduced tillage, and good water management give soil life what it needs to keep going.
Who are custom microbial amendments for?
Row crop and orchard growers, ranchers working on pasture, market gardeners, and homesteaders. We work across Northern California and Northern Nevada.
