Michael McMahon's Purpose
My professional background has primarily been in the landscape construction of very large projects. This has required: financing, budgeting, estimating, project management, the coordination of subcontractors, large labor crews, the use of heavy materials and a variety of materials. My brain is wired to work and set goals that scale in size. Soil Seed and Water’s purpose is to supply the demand of the ever-growing organic farm industry. Specifically, we want to provide consistent quality soils and seed products on a large scale for organic farmers and for retail customers in the southwest United States. To achieve that we require trained employees with the discipline to meet the standards and strict protocols we’ve developed for all our processes.
We are very heavy equipment-oriented which is to say, very capital intensive. Our soil products include compost and blended compost, worm castings, topsoil and the Ready go Garden growing system which includes organic heirloom seeds that we grow in Yuma. We also grow and sell a multi-use hemp seed. Hemp is a much-needed cover crop that requires low amounts of water and can be used in rotation, along with compost to help farmers improve and steward their fields. My purpose in SSW is to bring best business practices to our organization.
