Pickton, Texas
For over a decade, Stouts Creek Compost has been transforming East Texas landscapes through disciplined, science-driven composting. Our blends don't pretend to be synthetic shortcuts — they are the honest result of controlled decomposition, measured aeration, and deep respect for the ground you're working with.
Our Story
Stouts Creek Compost began with a simple observation: the land around Pickton was tired. Decades of conventional farming and landscaping had depleted the organic matter that makes soil alive. We started composting on a small scale — not because it was trendy, but because it was necessary.
Today, we operate a full-service composting facility on County Road 3372, processing locally sourced feedstocks through a controlled hot-composting method that eliminates pathogens while preserving beneficial microbial life. Every bag we produce carries the same rigor we apply to our own gardens.
No fillers, no shortcuts. What you see is exactly what you get.
We compost long enough for it to matter — never rushed, never half-done.
Every customer is a neighbor. We treat your land like our own.
What We Offer
From garden beds to acreage restoration, each blend is formulated for a specific outcome — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
A finely screened, nutrient-dense mix designed for vegetable gardens, flower beds, and raised beds. Works straight from the bag — no further processing needed.
A heavier, coarser blend for topdressing lawns, filling low spots, and establishing new plantings. Provides structure and water retention for established turf.
A high-carbon, slow-release blend formulated around fruit trees, grapevines, and perennial beds. Built for long-term soil building, not quick fixes.
Large-scale projects, specialty mixes, or bulk deliveries — we work with contractors, farms, and land managers to formulate exactly what the soil needs.
Our Method
Composting is not simply letting waste sit. It is a managed biological process — temperature, moisture, and aeration must all be held in balance for the microbes to do their work properly.
We accept only clean, verified feedstocks — yard waste, agricultural byproducts, and certified organic matter. Nothing enters our facility that we wouldn't use ourselves.
Our piles are turned and monitored until they reach sustained temperatures of 131°F–160°F. This kills weed seeds and pathogens while preserving beneficial microbial diversity.
After active decomposition, the material cures for a minimum of 60 days. It is then screened to your specification — fine for gardens, coarse for landscape work.
We deliver throughout the Pickton and East Texas area and provide guidance on application rates, timing, and soil integration for your specific conditions.
