Lawn come back
“I tried your product this year and I am pleased with the results. My wife and I found our lawn has come back alive. Instead of a dull looking lawn, with weeds and bare spots, we have a rich green lawn. Bugs and bumps are almost gone. The pest elimination is a bonus I guess. You have won me over. I won’t use anything else.”

Awesome results
“I saw your booth at the Eco show this spring, and thought why not. That decision has made my garden come back from the grave. I have all but given up. The application is easy, and it doesn’t take any more time than the traditional methods do. The results are awesome. My flowers are have grown quickly, my grass is green, my evergreens look healthy. Wow. Wow. Wow. I will be ordering product for the autumn that is for sure. Thanks guys.”

Book Review
Greetings:
My name is Ruth Lxxxi I attended an event at Niagara College last weekend and met Harold Priebe. At which point a purchased his book entitled "Old is New Again". I have to say it was the most informative intelligent horticultural resource I had ever read!
I am very interested in natural gardening and lawn care. As well as my houseplants and herbs. Though I am very much an amateur I love my little piece of nature. I also have a few people in my world that are like minded. Therefore I’d be very interested in purchasing at least 3 other books as gifts. Could you please let me know where I can purchase more of Harold’s literature.
I may also be interested in your products though I think I can make my own based on the information that Harold has shared in his book.
Keep up the good work!
Please respond when you can.
Thank you, Ruth Lxxxi

“My cousin in Sudbury suggested that I try the fertilizer for my grass. My grass is atop really crappy soil, and over the years I have tried everything. I am using the granular PF, and the liquid PF, and applying like you suggested. My flowers and lawn are green, healthy, and growing. I am amazed. You guys and your products have provided me a lawn that I now love.”

I became a believer
“I have 2 kids and they love playing on the lawn. I became a believer when Ken brought out his dog and applied the my first application of lawn fertilizer, with his dog playing on the wetted lawn! It really is safe!”

I have a backyard pond approximately 8 x 9 x 2 feet deep. It is 3 feet deep at the waterfall. I opened my pond in April this year cleaning out the leaves that got under the net and moving my plants back to the ledges. Within a short time I started to get “algae bloom”. I put a ¼ cup of Liquid PF into my pond. Within two days I could see to the bottom of the waterfall. My water irises are normally about 2 feet high and bloom for a week or so. This year they are 3 feet high and bloomed for about 3 weeks. In May I noticed string algae starting. I pulled out what I could reach and then put in another ¼ cup of Liquid PF. I have not seen any more string algae so far this year. My water lilies normally have had two to three blossoms at a time but this year there are six. All I can say is WOW.
I am one of those people who seem to attract every mosquito in the area and once bitten have a very bad reaction to the bites that last for a couple of weeks. Over the years I have tried almost every brand of insect repellant. Between the smell and not really working well, I stopped using sprays and had only been working in my yard in the heat of the day. I started using Bugs + Plus last August and have not had one bite since. I now go out in my yard when I want to. Thank you, thank you.

I used Harold's "Natural Way" worm castings for the first time last fall for my houseplants and they grew quite noticeably and were the deepest green I've ever seen them. I also have an arum lily for my pond that I bring indoors for the winter and it bloomed for the first time since I've owned it (I've had it since 2003) shortly after having the worm castings applied to the soil in the fall after I brought it inside.
I also put some of the liquid PF in my pond in the early spring when the water was a bit green and within a couple days it was crystal clear and it is still just as clear as it was then. It hasn't hurt the fish and the plants are thriving.
I have also used the diatomecious earth around my hostas, they have always been eaten by something every year in the past, and they look great!
Over the past few years I've become more concerned about our environment, so finding Harold's products was a bonus, not only do they work great, they're earth friendly! I haven't used any chemicals this year and my lawn and gardens look better than ever. And these products were a lot less money than I've spent on lawn and garden care in the past!
I'm sold on Harold's "Natural Way" products, they are absolutely amazing! Thanks for everything Harold!

Ken and Harold
I am glad you got home safely as the driving was terrible on Tuesday night. We didn?t actually finish our meeting as the weather was so bad we decided to wrap things up and get ourselves home. We all got home safely but it was certainly a white knuckle drive!
All five of us who attended had a wonderful time and we were very impressed with your presentation and the products. We are going to divide the free products up into smaller portions to share with the whole group. Thank you so much for your generous gifts; they were a complete surprise to us. I will recommend the two of you to all the horticultural societies and garden club groups I know as a good idea for a speaker. I love to hear anyone who is passionate about what they do and Harold is certainly that and more. I am so sorry that more of our members couldn?t attend on Tuesday.
I will share the price list with the group and see about doing a group order; I will email you when I have that together.
Thanks again for coming out and sharing with us your product and your passion for it,

Pasture and hay field
Sharon J,
Saugeen Shores, Ontario
Since I am using The Natural Way Plant Products in my pastures and fields, I increased the quality of pastures (better grass, no weeds) as well as the hay fields. I could increase my harvest steady through the last four years never mind the weather. No mouldy crops and 100% more.
The population of flies arround the barn and in the pastures have decreased a lot.
Using Waymore Natural Manure Exellerator eliminated the flies in the barn and on the manure pile
Crop increase

Since using "The Natural Way" plant food and "Waymore Natural Services" on my grain field I noticed not only an increase in growth on the crop, also a decline in weeds on my grain field, without any other use of chemical fertilizer or any other herbicides on my field. I would therefore recommend this product to anyone concerned for the enviroment and who would like to increase product, "The Natural Way".

Tip
Here is a handy tip
I have found the best way to keep slugs off the hostas is as soon as the crowns
begin to pop up in the spring I sprinkle oyster shells in a wide circle around
them. You can purchase 10lb bags at most co-op and feed stores. I believe they
are used to provide grit for poultry. I have not been bothered by slugs since.
It works the same way the crushed egg shells do but I could never eat enough
eggs to match my large hosta collection. In the past 4 years since I started
using the oyster shells I have had NO slug damage.
I find planting my tomato plants next to a large plastic pop bottle with the
bottom cut off and buried upside down has eliminated blight and allows me to
water and ,fertilize the roots not the soil around the plant.
The best all natural fertilizers and weed suppressants I have found is a line
called www.thenaturalway.ca . I was
so impressed with the product line we invited the owner to our local hort meeting
as a speaker. He was a wealth of info and gave away product as door prizes.

Greetings,
Further to our phone conversation yesterday, could you please provide me with the name and phone number of a retailer in the Alliston area for your products.
I used your dry formula this summer on a 2 year old lawn that was not well cared for prior to my recent purchase of the property. Within 6 weeks of applying the dry formula, the lawn became noticeably healthier. It is thicker, greener and more resistant to weeds. I plan to continue to use your soil conditioner in the future. I especially like that it is safe for pets and plants.
Healthy soil leads to a healthy plant, or lawn in my case. It's a very simple concept that is often overlooked. Thanks for introducing me to your products.
Regards,
Bill J

Hi There,
I used your dry formula last fall and this spring on my lawn and I have been very impressed with the results. The lawn is thicker and healthier than its ever been. You put me in touch with a lady in Beeton who sold me a bag of it last fall. I've forgotten her name and phone number. Could you kindly provide it again.
Thanks,

Flower-aholic Speaks Up
A card we received ...
I am a flower-aholic that has been using Harold's liquid PF ("Jolly Juice") for the past 3 years. My indoor plants as well as my outdoor plants love it!
I've had lots of compliments on the growth of my flowers.
I must admit I'm not much on measuring. I mix only what I need - using rain water. I keep the concentrate in the fridge to keep it fresh - plus I like that it is all natural!
In the spring 2003 we had 15 loads of fill and sop soil trucked around our new home southwest of Owen Sound, Ontario.
This fill and top soil was very poor and lumpy. We had to have a team of horses with disks and a roller to level it out. Our fear was that we could never grow a nice green lawn on it.
However, thanks to Harold and The Natural Way Products we now have a beautiful green thick lawn that we are very proud of.
Harold also has enhanced Diatomaceous Earth which we used to kill several stubborn ant hills with success.
We would recommend his natural earth miracle mixtures to everyone near and far.

Hi Harold
I am not used to getting complements. For the last several years I have been getting complements on my lawn. Comming from the farm this is something new for me. Could you bring some more liquid three more friends want some. One is from Calgary she is wants to take a big bottle with her.

Memorandum
Re: The Natural Way
Our business is environmentally motivated.
We distribute waterplants and ornamental fish such as Koi.
We needed an economic fertilizer that is fish friendly and therefore environmentally friendly. We tested your product this past season. We wanted to see how it performs compared to another product that we have been marketing successfully for four years.
The product was used directly in our water systems. Three remarkable points stood out.
The plant root growth was significantly increased. The water clarity was noticeably improved. The leaves were the rich kind of green colour we desired. Of course our fish are healthy and thriving.
We have introduced this product into our regular plan production. We are pleased to extend our hearty recommendation.
Thank you.
Warmest regards,

Dying Tree Revived
From an e-mail we received ...
Subject: Fertilizer
A friend of mine picked up some of your fertilzer at a farmer's market for me. I gave it to my boyfriend who owns a campground in Niagara Falls. He used some on a tree that was dying. It is a big deal when trees die on this property because they are usually shading a campsite. It's a pain to have to remove the tree, plant another and wait a few years before it is giving shade.
Within weeks, the tree was completely healthy.
I have a photo I took today if you would like to see the healthy tree.
