How we can help?

The community deserves grounds that are safe, functional and in attractive condition. For that very reason, Grower's Choice™ is the only choice. We offer premium soils, mulches and aggregates that require less maintenance costs and will keep the grounds in top condition.

Application Matters

Our cost effective services ensure uptime and useable grounds. Our Blower Truck Service is a labour and time savings method to lay out mulches and sports field soils. Pneumatic Seeding is a revolutionary method to quickly "plant" grass on large areas including slopes. Grinding Services offer an incredibly efficient way to deal with wastewood, brush, logs, etc. With one call, we can supply the material, apply it, and dispose of it.

New regulations require Certified Playground Mulch – we have it and can apply it with our blower truck.

Grinding & Screening

We offer custom grinding and screening services for municipalities, townships and more. Our equipment is second to none - we only bring our very best equipment to your site to ensure quality and efficiency.

Pneumatic Seeding

What are the benefits to Grower’s Choice Pneumatic Seeding?
• Seed is planted rather than being exposed on the surface; 
• Germination is increased because the moisture and warmth insulate the seed; 
• The “blow” in application levels the rough grade of subsoil with a smooth finished layer of well draining soil; 
• Most lawns can be planted in less than 2 hours; 
• Improves turf quality; 
• Gives fields or lawns increased resistance to environmental stress; 
• Increases water holding capacity of soil; 
• Improves turf root system; and 
• Saves considerable money and time for you. 

What does this mean for your lawn or sports field?
• Less watering, especially in drought conditions; 
• Lower dependency on pesticides and fertilizer; and 
• Decreases compaction, which is one of the main reasons for turfgrass failure. 

Where can I use Grower’s Choice Pneumatic Seeding application?
• New lawn or sports field installation; 
• Existing lawn topdressing and renovation; 
• Sports field topdressing and renovation; and 
• Installation of native landscapes with wildflower seed. 

Tackifier Microblend – Slope Applications
Pneumatic Seeding Tackifier Microblend is water soluble and is supplied in a powder form. When mixed properly with water, it acts like glue that binds together the various components of Pneumatic Seeding (compost and seed) and sticks to the soil. This is ideal for slopes and incline applications. Adding the tackifier also binds together tiny soil particles, creating aggregate, therefore reducing erosion issues. 

Soils & Mixes

Screened Topsoil
We provide high-quality screened topsoil to the Waterloo Region. Our standards are rigorous: We don't judge topsoil by color … neither should you. Color only indicates that it was weathered from a specific parent rock. Instead, we maintain effective quality control to ensure our topsoil contains balanced amounts of sand, silt and clay content, as well as for pH, nutrients and organic matter. 

Triple-Mix
Made for the demanding specifications required by today’s gardeners, our general-purpose mixture is a blend of rich composted organics, feeding the root system and locking in the existing nutrients. 

Premium Garden Mix
This mix has become one of high demand! Introduced in 2006, Super Garden Mix incorporates a blend of top quality composts but with no topsoil. It is easy to apply and aesthetically pleasing to the eye. Save money by using this mix to revitalize the drawn out soil, as opposed to replacing. Great value!
