Our mission for sustainability:

Melos diggings prides ourselves on all-natural and pesticide free gardening for our products. We aim to give back more than we get in our gardening doing our most to curate an environment worthy of some of natures more reserved species such as hummingbirds and monarch butterflies.

I also pursue apiculture in a hope to assist in the global decline of the bee population. While our hive collection is small someone doing a little here and a little there can add up if enough individuals do it and we can all as one truly make a change. 

We base all of our gardening off the ideals of permaculture and regenerative gardening. Constantly aiming to minimize our impact and always striving to give back. We recycle all materials, plant matter anything we can reuse we make sure we do. We mend all of our soil using natural methods never turning to industrial fertilizers of any kind all in the pursuit of bettering our environment around us and giving you all the best product we can.
