Soil Testing & Treatment Services
Our soil testing and treatment services provide clear answers and practical solutions for restoring healthy, resilient soils. We start with comprehensive baseline testing to identify contamination, nutrient imbalances, and biological conditions. Based on the results, we design targeted organic treatments that rebuild structure, boost biology, and support long‑term recovery. After treatment, we retest to confirm improvements and offer simple maintenance guidance to keep your soils, trees and plants thriving.
Soils Testing - Chemistry
Our chemical soil testing evaluates laboratory‑reported contaminant levels against established child‑health safety thresholds from EPA, DTSC, and related guidance. We interpret each analyte using the most protective published standards, clearly identifying where results fall below, near, or above recommended limits. This concise analysis helps families and property owners understand potential exposure risks and determine whether further action or treatment is needed.

Soils Testing - Biology
​Our biological soil testing measures the full spectrum of soil life and compares it to target biodiversity levels established by Dr. Elaine Ingham, the leading expert in Soil Food Web science. We follow strict shadow‑microscopy protocols to prepare samples, identify each microbial group, and quantify their presence. This analysis shows exactly where biology is thriving or missing, giving you a clear, science‑based picture of soil health and recovery potential.​​​​

Soil Treatments
Our Soil Recommendations & Treatment service is the second phase of our restoration process, turning test results into targeted action. We translate your chemical and biological findings into clear, site‑specific treatment plans using curated native seed mixes, organic amendments, compost extracts, and microbial restoration techniques. Each treatment is designed to rebuild soil structure, restore biology, and correct nutrient imbalances so your landscape can recover naturally and thrive long‑term.
Sustained Land Stewardship Services
Our Sustained Land Stewardship Services provide a simple, natural system for keeping your land healthy year‑round. We clear and compost vegetation regularly, apply seasonal compost‑extract bio‑drenches, and complete routine soil testing to track chemistry and biology. Each cycle restores soil microbes that drive nutrient cycling, ensuring your trees, shrubs, lawns, and gardens receive the nutrients they need without synthetic or costly inputs.​​​

We strive to expand our reach beyond the immediate fire‑impact areas of Altadena and Pasadena, and we’re glad to support clients in surrounding communities. For projects outside our designated service zones, we offer full soil testing and treatment services for an additional fee that covers time, travel, and the extra costs associated with non‑local sites.
