Rock River Laboratory, Inc. has recently acquired all Deveron agronomic and environmental assets to integrate into its family-run laboratory network. Rock River Laboratory is supported by more than 50 years of agricultural experience and brings respected knowledge and insights to this opportunity. As background: Woods End Laboratories, founded in 1974, became part of the Deveron family through a joint venture with A&L Canada Laboratories in April 2021. Since then, Woods End has continued its legacy as a soil health and compost testing laboratory, providing science-based data and tools for understanding soil health, organic matter stability, and carbon cycling. This includes the internationally recognized Solvita® suite of soil health and compost tests, which remain a cornerstone of our work. Now, through this next transition with Rock River Laboratory, we are excited to continue and expand that legacy. Our testing methods and Solvita technology are not changing. You will continue to receive the same high-quality science, data integrity, and support that have defined Woods End for decades. What is changing is our ability to reach a broader audience through Rock River’s established laboratory network – expanding access to trusted soil health and compost quality testing globally. As our organizations join expertise and capabilities, we share the common goal of advancing agricultural and environmental sustainability by empowering you with meaningful biological and chemical insights for better land management. This commitment to scientific excellence and service continues to guide every decision we make, including this one. While change can be challenging, this transition will ultimately benefit all who rely on our testing services. Customer service and analytical accuracy remain our top priorities. Anchored in deep expertise, your trusted providers now offer broader support through a united laboratory network. Zachery Meyer, who grew up within his family’s Rock River Laboratory business and worked through the ranks to CEO, will lead the combined agronomy and environmental testing operations moving forward. Your direct point of contact will remain the same. We sincerely appreciate your continued trust and partnership. During this busy season for farms, composters, and sustainability programs alike, we remain fully committed to delivering the attentive service and reliable science you expect from our team.
