I get it from a place in Orange county. Azomite is huge in northern california, not sure about central california.

Check this link for a supplier near you, some hydroponic stores have it too.

Tqn, thanks for the link, there are several places near me on that list. What got me started was our local hydroponic store, but they want almost twice that for the same amount. I'll have to check prices at our Farm Supply.

What were the results of your soil test and did you use azomite? Did you see an improvement?

thanks RWG

Turned out my soil had a pretty high pH, 8.1, with high levels of calcium & mg. I did use azomite, along with a complete soil Rx.

My area of most concern was my berry patch. The turn around has been great. I have decent fruit, and the canes that are forming for next year are looking great. I can't just attribute it just to the azomite, more the overall remineralization of my soil and good advice.
