Organic Growing Systems, Inc. Expands to Birmingham Alabama
Friday May 30, 8:00 am ET


ALPHARETTA, GA--(MARKET WIRE)--May 30, 2008 -- Organic Growing Systems, Inc. a subsidiary of Advanced Growing Systems, Inc. (OTC BB:AGWS.OB - News) announces that Gulf Coast Organics, Inc. has begun large scale distribution on a major level in the city of Birmingham, AL. Gulf Coast currently supplies Craft Turf Farms of Foley Alabama who has been using Organic Growing Systems' TOP Organic Fertilizer extensively on its 2,400 acre turf grass operation.

"The impetus for using organic fertilizer was prompted by the need to rebuild the soil after turf harvest," said Craft Turf Farms General Manager John Chapman. "Along with the cost advantage, the environmentally friendly aspects of the product have me sold on this organic fertilizer. So much so, that I strongly encouraged Gulf Coast Organics to spread the word and supply other growers and landscapers with the product."

Mark Nichols, President and CEO of Organic Growing Systems, Inc. stated, "Gulf Coast's new site in Birmingham will be operated solely by Mr. Jerry McManus, a long time veteran of the fertilizer industry and organics in general. Mr. McManus started distributing fertilizers and making relationships in 1969. Mr. McManus first learned about the true positive economic and environmental benefits of organics on his cattle ranch in Texas. While raising Champion cattle, he observed that the heads that grazed in organic pastures gained an average of 1.4 pounds more per day than those raised in the traditionally fertilized fields." Nichols adds, "For the last eight years, Mr. McManus, has been strictly using organics in his thriving landscape business in both Texas and Alabama."

When Nichols asked why Mr. McManus had chosen Birmingham, Mr. McManus replied, "Because it has a challenging soil structure, complete with rock and clay and virtually devoid of organic matter. This is a metropolitan area that we can really make a difference." When Mr. McManus was asked who his target market in Birmingham would be, he was very quick to reply, "I've already sold the City of Hoover, and have a number of award winning landscapes in the prestigious community of Greystone. I've made relationships with growers, cities, counties, schools, sod farmers, landscapers, homeowners, churches, sports fields, and golf courses."

Nichols states, "With the water savings abilities, the non-toxic aspects, and the ever-increasing costs of synthetic fertilizers, Jerry McManus and John Chapman are the right match with the right product for the growing city of Birmingham." Nichols continues, "Adding distribution is a key focus for us as a company right now. We are actively seeking distribution partners throughout the southeast as we continue to gain market share. Working with companies like Gulf Coast Organics, as well as our other distributors, is helping us to achieve our goals of building a national brand and placing us among the leading fertilizer manufacturers."
