Peat Moss Makes Money From Canada Bogs
Canadian Sphagnum Peat Moss Association head Gerry Hood argues peat moss is the oil of the future for Canada, with Ontario’s bogs and $100 million annual exports to the U.S. The industry faces high harvesting and transport costs, but aims for 10 percent annual growth and a bale in every North American garage. Hood promotes peat in home gardens and bio filtration, while industry hurdles keep plants idle without more funding.
