Possibly the most important job you can do in the garden.
So what’s the big deal?
- Get rid of those weeds: a nice layer of mulch on your flower beds will suppress some of those pesky weeds and make garden maintenance much more fun and save you loads of time.
- Make the soil nice and warm: mulch acts as a nice thick blanket for your borders. This keeps the soil warmer in the winter so you can get sowing those lovely veggies earlier.
- Feed your plants:: manure and composted bark contains nutrients to keep your plants in top condition. A nice sustainable way to perk up your shrubs.
- A free workout: mulching gets your heart rate up and builds those guns. Who needs a gym subscription?!

Get mulching in early spring so you don’t give those naughty garden pests a warm bed for the winter.
