It is finally prime time to get all of your gardening done for the season. You gotta check out PittMoss to help your flowers and vegetables grow bigger while also helping the environment. Listen and learn from PittMoss' Ashley Mariani on how using traditional peat moss takes its toll on the environment. PittMoss is made from recycled cellulose fibers, like newspaper. It keeps material out of the landfill, which allows gardeners to have good stewardship of our planet. Just named a Better Homes & Gardens Top Pick, she said plants grown in PittMoss deliver incredible results. How? The unique physical, chemical, and biological properties of PittMoss maximize the use of nutrients and water.  

PittMoss has emerged as an alternative to peat moss as a growing medium and potting mix  — and that's great news for gardeners who wish to break their peat habit in favor of a sustainable product. Here to explain what PittMoss is, how it's made, and the advantages of using recycled materials is Dr. Charles Bethke, a horticultural soil and nutrition consultant.

Dylan Lew is the CEO of Ecotone Renewables, a startup dedicated to making sustainable food and agriculture systems more accessible.   Ecotone Renewables has developed the “Seahorse”, which reinvents the food and plant waste disposal system, taking food that would otherwise be wasted and turning it into renewable energy and nutrient-rich fertilizer. The Seahorse uses a process of anaerobic digestion to produce ‘Soil Sauce' and transform methane gas emissions into less harmful CO2.   Ecotone won 2nd place at the Allegheny Cleantech Competition in 2018 and at the 2020 ACerS Humanitarian Pitch Competition. They are currently running a crowdfunding campaign to catalyze their next phase of growth.   In this episode, Dylan and Aaron discuss composting, emissions, waste management, and how many modern sustainability issues are matters of coordination, not requiring technical breakthroughs.   Sign up for a Weekly Email that will Expand Your Mind.   Dylan Lew's Challenge; Reduce your own food waste.   Connect with Dylan Lew Linkedin Instagram Facebook Ecotone Renewables Website   If you liked this interview, check out these three sustainability-focused startups; Fifth Season (vertical farms) founded by Austin Webb, Sequoia Waste Solutions' Charlie Dolan, and Mark Cuban-backed PittMoss (w/ CEO Brian Scott).

With Spring in full bloom, everyone's starting to think about their gardens, flowers and warmer weather to come. We welcome PittMoss CEO Brian Scott back to Business as Usual to talk about the many ways his environmentally friendly potting soil creates a lot of green. PittMoss calculates that in 2020, its products prevented 81,111 cubic feet of peat moss from being extracted, which equates to the reduction of 811.11 metric tons of C02 emissions. Annually, PittMoss gives each customer an Environmental Savings Certificate, which displays their calculation and certifies a specific number of metric tons of C02 emissions they’ve avoided that year.   Plus, with its new funding campaign on Republic, small investors can put a little bit of their "green" into the PittMoss to help make it grow.

Planting soil hasn’t changed much in the last 50 years. Brian Scott wants to change that.   Brian is the CEO of PittMoss, a Pittsburgh startup that creates a recycled/upcycled substitute for peat moss.    Pittmoss has been proven in greenhouse trials to outgrow all current peat-based potting soil products when mixed with these products or when plants are grown in nutrient-enriched Pittmoss alone.    He is currently leading a company pivot to the retail market. Brian originally invested in the company as an angel investor, and took over the company when the founder moved on for family reasons.   In this episode, Brian and Aaron discuss leading a company through growth, the negative environmental impact of peat moss, and the company’s fundraising history, including money from Mark Cuban.   Sign up for a Weekly Email that will Expand Your Mind.   Brian Scott’s Challenge; Let’s make Pittsburgh the first peat-free city.   Connect with Brian Scott Linkedin Instagram Twitter YouTube PittMoss Website Text Me What You Think of This Episode 412-278-7680 Underwritten by Piper Creative Piper Creative makes creating podcasts, vlogs, and videos easy.    How?
