How Berger Manufactures Peat Moss
Peat moss is the backbone of most horticultural substrates that are used today. However, the characteristics that make it ideal as the main ingredient in growing media can be jeopardized if it isn't harvested, conditioned and packaged conscientiously. Over the years, always striving to improve all operations from bog opening to storage, Berger has developed an expertise in handling peat moss. This is the foundation that allows us to consistently manufacture high-quality growing media.
The right partner to grow smarter
Berger is a vastly different type of growing mix producer. We take a smarter, more strategic approach to growing. We believe that the success is in the details: the right growing mixes can not only jumpstart the quality and yield of a grower’s crops but can also boost its bottom line. Indeed, from start to plant, how you grow matters as much as what you grow.
Berger has over 50 years of experience, excellence, and evolution in the industry. From its humble beginnings in Saint-Modeste, Québec, when peat moss was harvested manually and sold locally, to today’s international growing-mix powerhouse, Berger has helped its horticultural customers far and wide to achieve unremitting growth with their crops—and businesses. Our reputation for quality and consistency is our trademark.
