Our Premium Mulch Puts Other Ground Covers to Shame
We know what you’re thinking. You’re wondering what makes our ground covers so special. After all, isn’t all mulch the same? What could possibly make our ground covers better than the stuff you find in bags at the hardware store? We’re glad you asked!
There are three qualities that set our ground covers apart:
1. It’s Completely Organic
Unlike inorganic mulches, our ground covers nutrify the soil around them. So, they will help all your plants, trees and flowers grow up healthy, strong and tall.
2. It’s From Trustworthy Sources
Over the past three decades, we’ve developed relationships with the best harvesters in the tri-state area. They supply us the premium hardwood for our mulches.
3. We Process It In-House
Who knows what might be lurking in that bag at the hardware store? We ensure the quality of every mulch order by processing every single tiny piece on location.

Common Mulch Questions
What is the Best Mulch for Gardens or Flower Beds?
Answer: Premium Hardwood
Looking to keep weeds away from your precious greenery? You can’t go wrong with our premium hardwood. It provides the coverage necessary to suppress weeds while also nutrifying the soil as the organic material decomposes.
Which Works Best for Slopes or Trees?
Answer: Premium Hardwood
If you need to cover a slope or the base of a tree, you need something that won’t roll away easily. Because our premium hardwood comes shredded, its pieces hold together well. They’ll stand firm on even the steepest grades.
What is the Best Mulch for Curb Appeal?
Answer: Chocolate or Red
Our chocolate and red mulches are excellent options if you’re going for an eye-popping aesthetic. These dyed mulches are perfect for any outdoor decorator’s color pallet.
Which is the Easiest to Use?
Answer: Premium Hardwood
Most customers want a ground cover that spreads easily and gives lasting results. To them, we recommend our premium hardwood. It’s by far the most popular, proven and cost-effective ground cover we offer.
How Much Mulch to Use to Prevent Weeds?
Answer: 2+ Inches
If your mulching goal is to prevent weeds, you should lay down two or three inches. This will provide sufficient ground cover to keep weeds at bay.
How Thick Should I Lay My Mulch?
Answer: 1 to 4 inches
The right amount of mulch depends on your end goals and where the mulch will be used. For example, two or three inches is perfect for most flower beds, but some trees may require four inches.
Can You Lay Too Much?
Answer: Yes
A depth of over four inches is generally unnecessary when mulching. Not only that, but more than four inches could cause more harm than good. The reason? Layering mulch too thickly can strangle the roots of your plants by not allowing enough oxygen or water into the soil for absorption.
How Often Should I Apply Mulch?
Answer: Annually
We recommend applying mulch once a year, preferably in mid-spring. If you’re using our organic hardwood mulch, don’t bother removing anything left from last year. The decomposing remnants of last year’s mulch are actually adding nutrients to your soil!
