The natural beneficial properties of New Zealand sphagnum are enhanced by Begrow’s exceptional production processes. This labour-intensive process begins when the moss is hand-picked from swamps which are dedicated to the farming of Sphagnum moss. Sphagnum Moss grows in a dense mat to a length of about two feet. When harvesting, only the moss above the water level is taken, so the plant can continue to grow and be harvested again in three to five years. The moss is extracted from the swamp by helicopter, thus eliminating any environmental damage to the swamp, and transported for the second phase of processing. Long-established quality-control procedures are in place to ensure only the highest-quality Spagmoss products are produced. As Besgrow Spagmoss products are harvested from carefully managed, sustainable swamps, you can be confident that Besgrow products will always be available to you. Besgrow Spagmoss is naturally air-dried to preserve the optimal quality of the moss. Spagmoss passes through a series of cleaning techniques, both mechanical and manual, where contamination is removed.
