RocketGro: a rocketing success!

RocketGro are very proud of our Organic Approved Compost range. We utilise a rich natural substrate from our farm in Somerset, that we have in abundance from the green energy production facility that powers 11,000 nearby homes.

 

We blend a small amount of that with 7 other ingredients and mature that compost on a nearby airfield which we have purchased. This carefully managed process takes 9 months to take our compost to a point that it looks and feels like peat.

 

Great results come from using a quality Peat-Free Compost. Every year our compost blends get better and better. The introduction this year of two (from 1) Organic Fertiliser Superfoods which we add to the compost at bagging has made a huge difference.

 

For 2026 we have launched a new Organic Approved Granule Fertiliser product. With vibrant packaging and a customer friendly look and feel, we have taken our exciting brand to the next stage of its growth and development.

 

The new fertiliser product is an excellent linked sale to the RocketGro best-selling Multi-Purpose 50L Compost. Our British, Sustainable, Eco-Story, Low Carbon, Organic credentials, proven sales data, excellent price point, and fantastic service levels even in peak season with full load deliveries of only 5 working days post order received, surely begs the question: Why wouldn’t a retailer stock RocketGro products?!

 

RocketGro goes from strength to strength. We bring to garden centres what customers want to align themselves with. Great product, an aspirational brand, great values, soil loving, Somerset Organic Approved British Goodness. We are not a big corporate. We are RocketGro.
