Benefits of Mulch

Mulch is a layer of organic or inorganic matter that’s placed on garden. Mulch limits evaporation and helps the soil retain moisture for a long period of time. It protects the soil from extreme heat and cold, which can help protect the delicate roots of plants, grass, and trees. Mulch will also limit weed growth so your plants, and trees don’t have to compete with undesirable weeds and can thrive. The best time to apply mulch is when the soil is thoroughly moist. Most often this is in late winter or early spring, but bark can be applied at any time of year so long as the soil is moist
