  • How can I improve my topsoil’s health?

    Soil health is important in ensuring your plants and grass grow healthily. Over time, topsoil health can decline. There are simple precautions and corrective measures that you can take to improve your soil health which include soil testing, planting cover crops, composting, and adding fertilizer.

  • Why should I do soil tests for my garden?

    Your garden will deplete nutrients from your garden’s soil over time, especially if you like to plant the same types of vegetables. Testing your soil can help you gauge which nutrients your topsoil is lacking, and you can then apply the applicable fertilizer.

  • How many cubic feet of supplies do I need for my landscaping?

    To know how much landscaping material you need for your project, follow this simple equation: length x width x desired depth (in feet).

  • What are cover crops?

    Cover crops are plants that are meant to cover the soil and protect it rather than be harvested. They help prevent soil erosion, protect soil fertility, and protect against the damaging effects of the cold, pests, and weeds.

  • What kind of mulch should I use for my garden?

    The best type of mulch for your garden will depend on your intended purposes. Dyed wood and rubber mulch are ideal for improving the aesthetics of your landscaping. If you are looking for help with moisture retention, straw or coco coir mulch is a good option. Our staff is always available to offer personalized advice. So, feel free to give us a call and ask us for our recommendations.
