Made from 100% natural New Zealand sheep manure, a by-product of our wool industry, Tui Sheep Pellets are a Kiwi garden favourite for feeding the soil and supporting strong, healthy plant growth.
The secret ingredient is wool
Wool is what makes sheep pellets so effective for soil health.
Earthworms love it - Wool contains lanolin, which earthworms are naturally drawn to. They pull the wool down into the soil, creating tiny tunnels as they go.
Why this helps:
- The tunnels improve soil aeration
- Roots can grow more easily
- Water drains better, reducing the risk of waterlogging
Wool breaks down into humates - As worms and microbes break down the wool, it turns into humates - a rich, dark organic material that helps soil hold moisture and nutrients.
It’s a gentle nitrogen boost - Sheep pellets contain natural nitrogen, which wakes up soil microbes. These microbes break down organic matter and release nutrients in forms your plants can use.
For example, if you add sheep pellets before planting leafy greens, the nitrogen helps them grow lush and strong.
Easy to use, all year round
Sheep pellets are simple to apply - just sprinkle them directly onto the soil or mix them into the top layer. You can use them before planting, around existing plants, in pots, raised beds, or garden beds – any time of year.
Try the 5kg bag, the convenient 1.5kg Mini Sheep Pellets or in liquid form Tui Organic Sheep Plant Tonic this season.
