Bulk Mulch
We offer mulch in a large variety of colors and consistencies. See our listings below - and stop back often to see what's new! Bulk mulch is delivered on walking floor (self unloading) semi trailers. Basic benefits of mulch:
adds beauty to your landscaping projects
encourages the health of the soil. As the mulch breaks down, it releases nutrients into the soil.
helps retain moisture
moderates soil temperature
discourages weed growth and soil erosion
We use a carbon based colorant in our colored mulches, making it is safe for the environment, plants, people, and pets. We offer a selection of colors in both the Colorscape and Designer Shades colored mulch lines:
ColorScape Mulch is produced using natural wood by-products. No recycled materials are used. This and the double processing procedure makes the finished product look less fractured and more smooth, leaving a finer, uniform, finished mulch.
Designer Shades Mulch blends natural wood by-products and recycled materials. This material has longer and wider pieces in addition to the fines and adds depth to the overall appearance.

Handy Tips
Soak mulch before or immediately after applying it to gardens.
Never plant through dry mulch, especially during hot weather.
Because dry mulch will draw moisture from the soil and tender plants, water gardens thoroughly when applying mulch.
Sandy soils dry out quickly and often benefit from a slightly deeper mulch layer.
The mulched area should cover as much of the root zone as possible.
Mulch naturally decays adding valuable organic matter to the soil, so add more mulch as needed during the season.
