We deliver every gradeOrganic Compost
Organic compost is decomposed plant and animal matter that microbes have broken down into dark, crumbly humus. It smells earthy. Most compost is made from leaves, grass clippings, food scraps, and animal manure piled up and left to rot under controlled heat and moisture. Finished compost holds water well and feeds plants for months as it slowly breaks down in your soil.
The "organic" part means it came from living things and hasn't been mixed with synthetic fertilizer. What's actually in a yard depends on the feedstock. Leaf compost is light and fluffy. Mushroom compost is denser and a bit salty. Dairy compost runs high in nitrogen. Buying it by the yard costs a lot less than picking up bags at the garden center, and a cubic yard weighs somewhere around 1,000 pounds depending on how wet it is.

What people use it for
How to choose within organic compost
How much depth
2 to 3 inches is the sweet spot. Deeper starves the roots; thinner lets weeds through.
Color hold
Dyed mulches keep their color for a season, sometimes two. Natural mulch fades to grey within a few months.
Fine vs. coarse
Fine mulch breaks down into soil faster. Coarse mulch lasts longer and stays put on a slope.
