Mulch
Cedar mulch
Warm red tone that holds colour, and it keeps insects out of the beds. Also sold by the bag at $8.50 for 2 cu ft.
$120per cubic yard, delivered and spread
4 yd³ minimum on mulch jobs.
Three inches is the standard
Two if the bed still has good mulch and you are topping up, four if you are starting over on bare soil.
It feeds the bed
Hardwood breaks down into the soil over a season, which is the point. Cedar holds its color and keeps insects out.
Even depth, clean lines
We spread to an even depth, edge the bed, and blow off the walks before we leave.
