Overview
Filtrexx International is a small local, yet international company that is carbon negative. We have a created technologies based on compost that control erosion, manage stormwater, remove/reduce pollutants, restore/remediate degraded land, and grow, high quality nutritious, organic food.
Our site is not only our base of operations, but is also an inspiration. Much research is done on-site and we have various display greenhouses and gardens with vegetables, fruit, herbs, native plants, aquatic plants, and more. We have examples of natural building, an out building with a green roof, two ponds, display play spaces, and decorative landscapes.
We also have a non-profit arm, the Filtrexx Foundation, that does outreach, education, and community based projects.
