Over 60 years because we try harder

Over 60 years because we try harder

Joe, with his 60-plus years in the soil and compost world, truly had a 'PHD' – a Profound Horticultural Desire! He learned so much from his customers, along with a few hard-earned lessons along the way. He loved touring the countryside, meeting folks, and most of all, making top-notch compost. Now, let's keep that legacy growing!

Black Dirt Guy

A Legacy of Nourishing Gardens with Organic Compost

My name is Nadine Kissell, and I'm proud to be carrying on the Black Dirt Guy legacy. This isn't just a business for me; it's a way to honor my uncle, Joe March, who dedicated over 60 years to creating exceptional organic compost and serving the community he loved.

My Uncle Joe was a true believer in the power of compost. He understood that healthy soil meant healthy plants, and healthy plants meant a healthier world. He built Black Dirt Guy on those principles, and I'm committed to upholding them. I'm carrying on his tradition of knowledge and expertise through his book, which guides me in every decision I make for the business

Organic Gardening

Organic gardening - many folks are concerned about where their food comes from and the effects of pesticides, herbicides, e-coli, sewer sludge irrigation, chemical fertilizers and heavy metals in the growing process.

What I don't use in my compost mixes is just as important as what I do use.

I do not use human waste, sea waste, food waste, colors or chemicals.I do use (in no particular order):

  • Horse, cow and poultry manure
  • Green grass clippings (no chemicals)
  • Shredded leaves
  • High mineral sand
  • Hardwood chips
  • Sawdust

I blend these for high humus and high nitrogen.  It takes about eight months of letting it heat, turning it and screening it to make rich compost that won't burn new plants and smells like dirt.


It's truly Black Gold!
