Frequently Asked Questions

Using organic mulch can:

• Reduce weed growth and thereby save the gardener many hours of laborious weeding. 
• Maintain uniform moisture conditions in the garden by decreasing water loss through evaporation and decreasing soil erosion caused by heavy rainfall. Moisture retention means less watering and more water conservation.  
• Organic mulches add nutrients and humus to the soil as they decompose, improving its tilth and moisture-holding capacity.
