LOOKING TO START YOUR OWN VEGETABLE GARDEN?
Whether you're building your own raised boxes or starting small with a few pots or containers, we recommend our ORGANICS COCO COIR CONTAINER MIX for your home vegetable garden. If you only need compost to add to your current garden, we recommend our REPLENISH COMPOST.
For small projects, we have 1.5 cubic foot bags available. For larger projects, we have two options. First, if you have a truck, you're welcome to buy the material in bulk and we will load it straight into the back of your truck. Don't have a truck? You can rent a truck or small trailer at your local home improvement store for a small fee. Need more than a small truckload? We can deliver your container mix in bulk (minimum order of five cubic YARDS is required).
PLANTING A NEW LAWN?
A sometimes overlooked aspect of planting or maintaining a lawn lies in not taking into account the nature of the soil the lawn is to be planted in.
There are three basic types of soil: (1) clay-laden - consisting mainly of very fine particles that retain water And have a tendency to stick together or ball-up if you try to squeeze a handful (2) sandy soil - made of much more grainy particles and that have a greater difficulty holding moisture, as it tends to percolate right through this material, and (3) loam - which is a combination of both sand and clay.
Once you have a sample of the soil in your planting area, it is wise to get a soil analysis which will tell you the pH (acidity or alkaline nature of the soil) and the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and other organic material present - and - how far off the mark your soil is to an ideal composition and texture that will best promote growth.
Soil amendments are materials such as humus, coco-coir, shaved bark, and compost. They must be added only as necessary dependent on the specifics and/or deficiencies of a given soil. They can result in improved aeration, drainage and root penetration, and a healthy microbial environment that will promote the growth and well being of your lawn.
Contact us for further information in planning your next lawn - or any other project requiring soil reparation. A list of our top dressings can be found here and a list of our soil amendments can be found here.
