Our Beginning

Down To Earth began in Eugene, Oregon, in 1977 in response to the growing segment of American consumers who were looking for alternatives to plastic and synthetic materials. At the forefront of the burgeoning organic movement of the 1980s, we began making fertilizers out of our storefront shop to provide our customers with a natural, economical option for their gardens. Today, we own a retail store, Down To Earth Home, Garden and Gift  located in a beautiful historic building in Eugene, Oregon, and a nationwide distribution center, Down To Earth Distributors®. We also produce our natural and organic fertilizer brand, Down To Earth® Fertilizers, at our fertilizer manufacturing facility, on site. Our fertilizers are made in the USA, using quality ingredients responsibly sourced from around the world. Our fertilizer boxes are fully compostable. Over the years, and due to the popularity of our products, we have greatly expanded, yet our commitment remains the same. We strive to provide our customers with a reliable source and a wide selection of high-quality, natural, and sustainable products to enhance people's lives with products that increase health and happiness.

Practical Goods for Natural Living

The Down To Earth slogan "Practical Goods for Natural Living" reflects our thoughtful selection of items made from durable, recycled, or biodegradable materials such as cotton, canvas, felt, beeswax, bamboo, ceramic, glass, cast iron, wood, and stainless steel.
