Testimonials
“I am so proud to be associated with the owners and staff of Select Soils in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania. For the last thirty years of my career, I have watched this company grow their business from what was initially just a small composting facility into today what is a leading supplier of spent mushrooms compost and the only baler of spent mushroom compost in the world. From the early days to the fiercely competitive business arena today, Select Soils has remained dedicated to environmentally friendly mushroom compost production within the hundreds of communities surrounding their production facilities. Select Soils was the first in the United States to construct a commercial composting facility implementing the latest European technology, which brings the composting process from outside, to a completely controlled atmosphere indoors. As a result of this massive environmentally friendly and socially responsible investment, Select Soils has decreased, by half, the time it takes to produce a more consistent and biologically efficient substrate benefiting their customers with a year-round, consistent supply of quality mushroom compost. This cutting edge technology reduces, by 95%, odors from the substrate preparation process. In the future, I see the use of chemicals and pesticides utilized in mushroom production being weeded out of the process, and I am sure that Select Soils will be leading the way in that initiative, also by providing the purest possible products to their customers through the most environmentally safe technology in the industry. “

“One Friday at 5 pm, I called Select Soils in a panic. Not only was someone there to answer their phones, but i was able to place an order on the spot, and it took only about 10 minutes. Once my order was placed, it took no more then a few days for them to deliver my product to Iowa, about 1500 miles away from their offices. You can’t beat service like that, not to mention my corn crop this year has increased dramatically.“

“I love this stuff. This is not a question, but a comment. This past spring I ordered and received 20 bales of spent mushroom compost from Select Soils. With this, I received paperwork stating that if it didnt work out that Select Soils will buy it back…Well, you CAN’T have it! I truly love it and have been very happy with the results I have had so far this summer. Thank you!“

“If everyone could be as customer focused as you, life would be so much easier. I have gotten 50 times the value from Spent Mushroom Compost in crop yields. I am among a vast number of farmers in my area, and whenever I speak with another local farmer I suggest the use of Spent Mushroom Compost on their crop. The ones that have listened have succeeded beyond their expectation, very much like myself. “
