Why Mulch?  Consider the following:

Acting as a surface insulation, mulch:

• moderates extremes in temperature
• conserves moisture
• controls weeds
• and prevents erosion

As a soil amendment, mulch:

• improves soil aggregation and granulation
• provides habitat and sustenance for beneficial soil organisms
• improve the efficiency by which plants take up fertilizers
• increase water absorption and retention
• and prevents soil compaction and improve aeration

With means of beautifying, mulch:

• makes surface areas more attractive
• makes surface areas more usable for paths, play and sitting areas
• makes landscaped areas easier to maintain

Most importantly, mulch adds value to your home and landscape.
