Soil Health Booster

Like an energy shot for your soil!

This rich, thick-concentrate soil booster is a microbial biofertiliser specially formulated to supercharge all the underground helpers that make your plants thrive — from beneficial bacteria and fungi to worms and other microorganisms. 

Apply regularly to boost microbial activity and create a thriving living soil ecosystem.

Healthy soil = healthy plants 🌱.

With consistent use, you’ll see stronger growth, improved natural resistance to pests and disease, and greater resilience against heat and frost. 

Made in Canberra from food and coffee waste diverted from landfill, this Soil Health Booster (formerly ‘Food2Soil Chocolate’) includes nutrient-rich organic solids left over from our unique fermentation process — a natural way to improve soil and close the loop on waste. 

It’s literally alive with billions of beneficial bacteria, with a thick texture (like melted chocolate) that your soil helpers will love to devour.

How to use it:

Simply mix the concentrate with water in a bucket or watering can (spout removed) and pour onto garden beds, lawns, pots or planters. 

Use it to reduce transplant shock by soaking plant roots in diluted solution for 30 minutes to four hours. The microbial-rich blend coats roots with beneficial organisms that help plants settle in quickly and stress less.

So far so good

I ordered the 2 set and have only had them a couple of weeks. I'm already starting to see vigorous new tips on my hedging plants and the huge succulent gardens look greener in colour. I'm in a new housing estate and there are no worms or and nutrients in the soil here so tired is an excellent result. I look forward to seeing how well this goes. I'll be grabbing some of their worms soon to add to the mix!

Great Stuff

I’ve now been using the Food to Soil product for almost a month now on my potted fruit trees. The difference in the fruit trees is very noticeable. They appear greener and healthier and are doing very well coping with the heat. ( 5th floor balcony). Very happy with the product.
Thank uou

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Soil Health Booster and how does it work?

This soil booster is a thick-concentrate biofertiliser designed to supercharge the underground ecosystem of your garden. Made in Canberra from recycled food and coffee waste, it’s packed with billions of live microbial organisms — beneficial bacteria, fungi, and other helpers — that transform lifeless dirt into rich, fertile soil. This powerful Soil Health Booster delivers a concentrated dose of organic matter and nutrients that improve soil fertility, structure, and resilience (a bit like compost!) Regular application boosts nutrient cycling, including the availability of key elements like nitrogen and phosphorus, supporting healthier plants with less need for synthetic fertiliser.

How do I apply Soil Health Booster?

Applying Soil Health Booster is easy. Mix the thick concentrate into a bucket of water or a watering can (with the spout removed), then pour it directly onto the soil, plants, raised beds, or garden pots. For the best results, apply every 2–4 weeks during the growing season. You can also use it as a transplant aid by soaking plant roots in a diluted solution for 30 minutes to four hours before planting. This coats the roots with beneficial microbes, reducing transplant shock and promoting faster establishment.

How does Soil Health Booster improve soil health?

Soil Health Booster feeds and stimulates beneficial soil microbes, fungi, and earthworms — the key players in building healthy soil. These organisms break down organic matter, recycle nutrients, and improve soil structure, helping plants access water and essential nutrients like nitrogen. With regular use, your soil will become more fertile, biologically diverse, and better at retaining moisture and resisting erosion. Whether you’re growing vegetables, flowers, fruit trees, or shrubs, improving soil health leads to stronger, more resilient plants.

Can I use Soil Health Booster on my lawn?

Yes! Lawn soils are often compacted and low in organic content, making them an ideal target for Soil Health Booster. Applying Food2Soil Soil Health Booster helps break up dense soil, stimulate microbial activity, and boost nutrient availability, promoting healthier soil and a thicker, greener lawn. Regular use strengthens lawn roots, improves drought tolerance, and helps grass bounce back from heat stress, foot traffic, or pest damage. For the best results, incorporate it into your lawn care routine throughout the year.

Is Soil Health Booster safe for pets, bees, and wildlife?

Absolutely. Soil Health Booster is made entirely from recycled organic materials, with no synthetic chemicals or harmful additives. It’s a safe, eco-friendly way to improve soil health and support biodiversity in your garden. When used as directed, it poses no harm to pets, bees, or local wildlife — making it a responsible choice for gardeners who care about sustainability, soil health, and environmental impact.

How does Soil Health Booster help during transplanting?

Transplanting can be stressful for young plants, but soaking roots in diluted Soil Health Booster before planting coats them in beneficial microbes that ease the transition. This microbial shield supports better nutrient uptake, strengthens roots, and reduces vulnerability to disease, pests, and environmental stress. Whether you’re moving flowers, vegetables, or shrubs, this booster helps your plants settle in quickly and grow strong.
