American Topsoil Information

American Topsoil was started in 1988 by Ed Prigel. Ed is a geologist and has extensive experience in agriculture as well as soil conservation. Most people do not know that selling topsoil in an urban setting is actually topsoil conservation. We work on farms that will soon be developed. We remove and save the rich, top 8 inches of topsoil before the farm is developed. Usually, the best topsoil gets ruined during development as it gets mixed up with clay and rocks and buried within the site's development. We then sell the rich topsoil to people who need it for gardens and yard work. We estimate that our topsoil remains just as productive and possibly even more productive being in someone's garden, compared to its former state on the farm. Since 1988, American Topsoil has grown to employ nine people full time and several more part-time employees. Our employees make the difference as they put their experience to work for you everyday.
