The process involves mixing biosolids, a bulking

agent and peanut hulls to produce a quality product designated

as exceptional quality by the EPA. This designation

allows for unlimited use by customers to condition soil and

fertilize food crops and garden plants.

Each year, ERTH Products diverts over 24,000 wet tons

of biosolids earmarked for landfills and incinerators. The

company currently processes biosolids for the cities

of Plains, Gainesville and Albany, along with the

Cherokee County Water Authority and the Douglas County Water

Authority.

The finished product ERTH Food, is sold in bulk bad

bags and is used as an organic soil conditioner and fertilizer.

ERTH Food has an extensive list of users including

golf courses, soil blenders, sod growers, landscape

contractors, farmers, gardeners, nurseries, retailers and the

Georgia Department of Transportation.

The award was presented to co-owner Wayne King at a

luncheon at the Georgia World Congress Center late

last month.
