Mulches & Soils
                         Loose Bulk Mulches
              The bucket on our front end loader serves up a full yard of Mulch Material.
                     One scoop should be approx. 27cuft which is equal to 13-14 2cuft bags.
                            One scoop should cover approx. 100 sqft when spread 3" deep.

 Boulder Base Mulch - Ground tree trimmings, aged for several months,
                                     processed through a hammer-mill and piled  high.                    
                                      Fines to chips consistency with sticks and bark
                                     pieces visible. A great mulch for initial base layer for
                                     areas away from inhabited structures. Great for moisture
                                     retention around trees and shrubs, hillsides, etc.
                                     
We use this under our Pine Straw around our property entrance.
 
 
Double Ground Hardwood - Fines to Fibrous strips. Medium to Dark Brown.       
                                      Aged and ground bark hardwood. Great smell. Great               
                                      consistency. Will matte to help prevent weeds and retain
                                     moisture. Nourishes plantings, clings to sloped ground,
                                     and looks good while it's working -a win, win. This is our
                                     most popular bulk mulch. It looks its best in early Spring.

 
Triple Ground Hardwood - Fines to Fibrous strands. Deep, Dark Brown.
                                     Aged long and finely ground bark hardwood. Fluffy
                                     consistency. Great for new and delicate plantings. Will
                                     breakdown into soil easily. Provides a dark canvas for
                                     colorful blooms and a nice contrast to your lawn and other
                                     landscape media.

 
Color Dyed Mulch - A liquid pigment is added to wood chips to create
                                     different colored mulches: Black, Brown, and Red. The
                                     wood chips are derived from pallet material, construction
                                     scraps, and even furniture. The colored dye is not
                                     believed to be harmful to plantings, animals, or humans.
                                     This mulch has no nutritional value and should be used
                                     for aesthetic purposes only. It is recommended to allow
                                     the dye on this mulch to dry in the sun for awhile, before
                                     being exposed to watering or rain. It is recommended
                                     NOT to spread this mulch when rain is in the immediate
                                     forecast. In addition, be aware that dye may temporarily
                                     stain concrete sidewalks or driveways.  
 
Pine Straw Bales -  Pine Straw helps to insulate roots from temperature
                                     extremes, helps to prevent weeds from taking hold, and
                                     allows water to filter into the soil. 10"-12" average needle
                                     length. Our supplier provides hand raked, hand
                                     compressed, and hand tied 13"x15"x28" bales.
                                     They estimate initial coverage to be 45 sqft/bale at 2 1/2"
                                     deep. Additional applications approximately 80 sqft/bale.
                                     
Growing Compost - Composed of aged, broken-down hardwood mulch. This
                                     finely ground compost is great on its own. Or, ready to be
                                     mixed with soil and sand and shoveled into your gardening
                                     beds. When moist, compost is a Deep, Dark Brown and
                                     dries to a Rusty Brown. If you are wanting a "more" organic
                                     compost, you will need to add food matter and manure.
                                     Served up in the same scoop as our Mulch Materials, but
                                     yields closer to 3/4 of a cubic yard, or approx. 21 cuft.
            
      
Top Soil -                     Hauled in and processed through our hammer-mill to make
                                     it more "workable" when dry. Plans for 2011 include building
                                     an enclosed storage bin to keep its workability year-round.
                                     One scoop yields approx. 3/4 of a cubic yard and can weigh
                                     close to a ton.

Pine Bark Mulches add texture to your landscape and keep their Rich
Brown color the longest. Easy to spread. Easy to freshen up. Shredded
and Mini-Nugget varieties help to retain moisture and prevent weed
growth. Good nutrition for plant and shrub materials. NOT ideal for
sloping ground, around swimming pools, or in areas prone to flowing
water due to its inability to matte and hold itself in place.
