Why Wool Belongs in the Garden

An ancient material for modern sustainability

Wool has been valued for centuries in clothing and bedding, but its role in gardening is still being rediscovered. At Sustaina Grow, we’re passionate about showing how this renewable, biodegradable material can support healthier soils and crops.

Unlike synthetic weed mats or plastic-based products, wool naturally decomposes, adding nitrogen and other nutrients back into the earth. It’s a cycle of growth that respects the planet: sheep grow wool, gardeners use it, and the soil benefits long after the harvest.

In a world looking for solutions that reduce plastic waste, wool offers a path back to natural, regenerative practices.
