A New Food Category: Earthmade isn’t just a product. It is a brand new way of farming and growing. It doesn’t require the chemicals used in conventional farming, and it has higher yields and longer life than organic farming. Earthmade is forging its way into a more sustainable future, one commodity at a time. Earthmade focuses not only on food, but on plant life, human life, and the full life of our planet. We can re-nourish the soil, we can cut down on chemicals entering the human microbe, and we can produce enough food for the growing population. The time is now, so choose Earthmade.
“When you think about it, it’s actually one of the most exciting opportunities we can have. To rebuild our soils and our health, from the ground up.”
– Mike Dobbins
From its inception, Earthmade has set out to be not only a reactive solution, but a proactive one as well. It’s up to all of us to make the right choices for our health and the health of the planet, and Earthmade is a catalyst to making 100% GoodTM choices. With Earthmade as an option, we can take most of the worrying and guesswork out of what consumers should or shouldn’t purchase. ‘ZERO chemicals’ is a pretty clear message when it comes to what’s in your food. Can we help people select the better strawberries? The better corn? If so, we can apply an economic lever which incentivizes farmers to focus on quality, and not on quantity. The solution is simple…it’s simply Earthmade.
We believe that we are that generation that will eliminate chronic disease, and the exciting thing is, this movement has already started.
Earthmade food practices are not only an in-process solution, but a preventative solution as well. We believe we are providing an alternative to current approaches that cause harm, and that are ultimately unsustainable. It all starts from the soil…and Earthmade is healing plants, food, human health, and our planet from the ground up.
Earthmade is also making systems we use today better, and creating innovations that help minimize negative impacts on people and on the environment. One of our main goals is to aid the farmers, so that they benefit from harvesting good food and healthy yields. Farmers are the first ones to feed our people, and our planet.
Strawberries
Strawberries like fertile, well-drained, slightly acidic soil, and do best in full sun. This type of soil is harder to come by in chemically damaged conventional fields, or soil that can’t be rotated due to organic farming. Earthmade strawberries thrive due the good bacteria that is put into the soil, producing healthy fruit from a healthy foundation.
Did you know that the seeds of a strawberry are referred to as “true fruits?” Technically, the small, yellow seed-like bits are called achenes, and each is a fruit! Inside each achene is the actual strawberry seed. An average-sized strawberry holds about 200 achenes.
Do you know what an Earthmade Strawberry DOESN’T contain?…pesticide residue.
We HEART Earthmade strawberries! Strawberries contain powerful heart-health boosters like ellagic acid and flavonoids that can provide an antioxidant effect that can benefit heart health by 1) counteracting the bad cholesterol in the blood 2) providing an anti-inflammatory effect, which is also good for the heart.
Earthmade strawberries are sustainably grown, making them healthy for you AND the planet! We love it!
Earthmade strawberries are also packed with vitamin “SEE!” Did you know strawberries are good for your eye health and vision? Our eyes require vitamin C to protect them from exposure to free-radicals from the sun’s harsh UV rays. Vitamin C also plays an important role in strengthening the eye’s cornea and retina. Earthmade’s VISION is a solution for healthy and sustainable products without the use of any harmful chemicals or heavy metals, while providing the farming industry an efficient and effective way to maintain their yields and preserve their land and environment
Earthmade strawberries are worth the “WEIGHT!” Because strawberries are naturally low in calories, fat-free and low in both sodium and sugar, they are a great snack alternative for maintaining a healthy weight in order to prevent diabetes and heart disease. Watch out for Earthmade strawberries hitting local Walmart produce sections soon!
Celery
Celery requires plenty of moisture, fertile soil, and a long, cool growing season. Any obstacles to these conditions will lessen the yields. Earthmade celery is grown with yields equal or better to conventional and organic.
Soybeans
Globally, various aspects of soy production generate greenhouse gasses that contribute to climate change. Luckily, Earthmade’s sustainable practices do not include any chemical use, helping to reduce these challenges to our environment.
Corn
Corn can be finicky to grow, and there are many diseases and pests that can also plague corn. Earthmade helps to combat these issues by using good bacteria to fight off the bad bacteria

Help us out by socializing online, downloading information, and getting the word out! Everyone can benefit from Earthmade, and can do something that is 100% Good for the earth!
We are always looking for partnerships, industry professionals, educators, scientists, and distributors to help us make a difference! Get in touch if you are interested in helping us spread our mission and showing your support for better food, better health, and a better earth.
It is Earthmade’s goal to form a strong global connection of farmers, and to find partners that share our vision of making a difference across the globe in sustainability. If you know someone that can help us fulfill our mission, refer them to us!
Mike Dobbins is developing bio inputs to replace pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers. His mission is to give farmers the tools they need to produce 100% chemical free food at the scale needed to feed the 9.8 billion people that will soon inhabit the earth. “If you want to look after biodiversity, and you want to improve our soil health, and you want to improve our chronic illness growth, we have to have NO chemicals. And in all fairness there has not been, on a worldwide basis, a solution to the problem.
Mike Etchandy is a fourth generation organic and conventional Orange County strawberry farmer. Jaded by the ambiguous organic certification system and the heavy metals it relies on, he has been testing new bio inputs on his strawberry fields to reduce his dependence on harmful chemicals.
