Meet Mark Schreurs from Peter Schruers & Sons Leek & Vegetable Farm

Mark Schruers along with his two brothers, grow for 12 months of the year on their vegetable farm producing mainly leeks, but also cosberg lettuce, baby cos lettuce, radicchio, wombok and kohlrabi.

WHAT MATTERS TO MARK

At Peter Schreurs & Sons they’re passionate about quality and sustainable farming. Increasing biodiversity in the soil is a priority.

THE FIX

They had been trialling different compost for over 10 years. Since partnering with Gibsons Groundspread 6 years ago they now have a complete solution. Our team spread calcium each year in the form of Gypsum. That works in conjunction with Revive premium grade mature recycled compost which is well screened. That puts the humus in which is the building block for good, healthy soil.

PARTNERING WITH GIBSONS GROUNDSPREAD

“Since using Revive each year it has helped build our carbon up and has made our soil much easier to manage. Its water holding abilities are great, we are probably using 25% less water.”
