How to mulch

  • Spread 2 to 3 inches over beds; 1 inch is too thin to stop weeds.
  • Keep mulch a few inches away from stems and tree trunks — no “mulch volcanoes”.
  • Top up each spring; mulch breaks down and feeds the soil.

Frequently asked questions

How much mulch do I need?

One cubic yard covers about 100 square feet at 3 inches deep, or 160 square feet at 2 inches. Try the mulch calculator.

When is the best time to mulch?

Late spring, after the soil warms, and again in late fall to protect new plantings over winter.

Is dark bark mulch safe for vegetable gardens?

Bark mulch is fine around shrubs and perennials. For vegetables, many gardeners prefer straw or compost.
