About The Good Shit
Welcome to The Good Shit, where we're passionate about cultivating more than just gardens; we're cultivating a sustainable and food secure future.
Our Story
After witnessing his backyard chickens significantly enhance his gardens over the years, founder Cole Etherington knew there was something special about these birds that had to be shared with others. Cole had often joked with friends about making chicken “business” his actual business, and as 2023 began, it seemed to
Cole that now, more than ever, the world needed some Good Shit.
Growing Food, Growing Change
At The Good Shit, we believe in the transformative potential of growing your own food. Our turnkey organic garden kits are designed to empower individuals to take climate action and contribute to local food security. Each kit includes a raised bed, carefully selected seedlings, and a very special ingredient – chicken manure.
The Power of Chicken Manure
Our kits feature nutrient-rich chicken manure, a natural fertilizer that not only nourishes your plants but also revitalizes and enriches your soil. High in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, chicken manure promotes robust plant growth, ensuring strong roots, vibrant foliage, and abundant blooms. The decomposition of chicken manure also introduces valuable organic matter into the soil, enhancing its structure, fostering microbial activity, and improving water retention. This dual-action approach not only fuels plant vitality but also creates a sustainable and resilient soil ecosystem, making our kits a holistic solution for a thriving and enduring garden.
