Let’s talk dirty for a minute. I’m talking about our soil. Not just the kind that sticks to your boots, but the kind that feeds your crops, supports your farm, and keeps your family fed. This Earth Day, it’s time we shine a light on something that doesn’t always get the credit it deserves: our soil.
We’ve Got a Problem – And It’s Right Under Our Feet
Here’s the truth: the soil we depend on is in trouble. Big trouble.
More than half of the world’s soil is already degraded, and if we don’t do something, over 95% could be degraded by 2050. That means it’ll be harder to grow food, harder to keep water where it belongs, and a whole lot harder to protect the future of our farms.
Even here in the U.S., we’re seeing it. The Midwest alone has lost over 57 billion metric tons of topsoil since farming began. In some places, we’re losing soil a thousand times faster than it can naturally rebuild. That’s not sustainable — not for our fields, and definitely not for the next generation.
Why Soil Health Matters More Than Ever
Soil isn’t just some dusty stuff under our shoes — it’s alive. It’s filled with good bacteria, fungi, minerals, and all the natural nutrients that make plants thrive. But when we overuse synthetic chemicals, till too much, or keep growing the same crops, we strip all that life away. What’s left is compacted, lifeless dirt that can’t hold water or nutrients.
And that’s when the real problems start. Lower yields, sick plants, more pests, and a lot more work for fewer results.
BUT, we can turn it around.
Organic Growth Burst– A Natural Boost for Your Soil
At 4G Soil Restoration, we’re on a mission to help farmers get back to what works: natural, God-designed solutions that bring soil back to life — starting with Organic Growth Burst.
This isn’t a fertilizer. Organic Growth Burst is a non-toxic, organic-registered soil amendment packed with minerals, nutrients, and live microorganisms in a molasses base — all designed to heal the land, not just mask the problem. It’s safe for kids, pets, and pollinators too (yep, even the bees and butterflies).
When you mix it with water and apply it to soil above 45°F, the microorganisms wake up and start multiplying — fast. In 48 hours, they multiply by 100 sextillion times. (That’s a 1 followed by 23 zeros. It’s wild.)
These microbes eat up the bad stuff in your soil and turn it into nutrients your plants can actually use. At the same time, they loosen up compacted dirt, create little air pockets, and help the soil hold onto water — so your crops don’t drown in the rain or shrivel in the heat.
Real Farmers. Real Results.
We’re not just talking theory — this stuff works. Just ask the folks who’ve tried it:
“I didn’t water my garden once during a drought. The soil stayed moist the whole time after I used Organic Growth Burst.”
— Carrie, Milan, IN
“My pear trees produced 50% more fruit, and the blight I fought for years disappeared. The soil was looser, the plants were stronger — even my flowers looked better.”
— Goldie D., Rising Sun, IN
“I’ve never had an easier growing season. No pests, better germination, and everything just looked healthier. I’m a believer now.”
— Margaret Stewart, IN
With [Organic] Growth Burst, there’s Hope
Look, the facts are serious. But this isn’t the end of the story — it’s the beginning of something better. We still have time to fix what’s broken. We still have time to bring our soil — and our farms — back to life.
This Earth Day and everyday after that is the perfect time to start.
Let’s stop relying on chemicals that hurt more than help. Let’s choose to restore the ground we walk on, grow healthier food, and leave behind soil that’s even better for the next generation.
If you’re ready to make that change, Organic Growth Burst is here to help.
