Chemical pesticides, fertilizers, and hormones rob soils of life and decimate living ecosystems. They leach into water and endanger anyone who breathes or touches them. But for many farmers, growers, and gardeners, ag chemicals have become a necessary evil: the only option for consistent growth.
At IMIO, we believe agriculture should work with nature, not against it. We combine cutting-edge science with beneficial microbes like bacteria, yeast, and fungi to create a new, more effective class of regenerative agricultural products.
Headquartered in New York City and Essex Junction, Vermont, we’re on a mission to eliminate toxic chemicals from farms, fields, and gardens.
Agricultural chemicals are rooted in decades-old science, and an outdated worldview. They are about death and control, not life and community.
IMIO is rooted in an approach that we call Organic Intelligence.
Rather than trying to bend nature to our will, we create products that work with it. Rather than prioritizing one outcome over all others, we think systemically. Rather than endangering people and the planet, we work organically.
Symbiotic, regenerative, and organic—this is the heart of Organic Intelligence. If we are to feed our planet without destroying it, this is the only acceptable standard for agricultural products.
Microbes are nature’s growth engine. Where the right microbial communities flourish, plants and people flourish too.
Our goal at IMIO is to take what nature already does so well and distill it into a line of products that allow farmers, growers, and gardeners to grow healthy, abundant plants and restore soil.
The microbial communities that form our products are the result of years of research and manufacturing innovation. We partner extensively with leading research labs and agronomists to ensure that every product we create is safe, consistent, and more effective than the leading chemical-based competitors.
