Mulch can be an excellent complement to your garden plants. Explore our gallery to see what mulch cam do for you.
It’s easy to calculate how much mulch you need for your project; you just need to know the square footage of coverage and the desired depth of mulch. Multiply these 2 numbers together to get the total volume needed for your project.
Deciding on the depth of mulch for your space is up to you to an extent, but we usually recommend around 3 inches for most projects.
Since mulch is a natural organic material made from wood, it will decay over time and essentially turn into topsoil. Proper care can increase the lifespan of mulch to an extent, but eventually your mulch will degrade. Mulch in Kansas City can also be swept away by wind or rain over time, so it’s important to keep an eye on your space and replenish mulch as needed. With proper care, you’ll probably need to replace your mulch every 5 years or so.
Ensuring a healthy biome in your garden can work wonders to fight decay in your mulch. Make sure to regularly weed your garden and trim trees and shrubs overhead. These steps can decrease debris that can exacerbate mulch decay.
Investing in quality edging can also ensure that your mulch stays in your garden. We offer many different edging options, ranging from our premium natural stone edging to Oly-Ola polymer edging or even DuraEdge steel edging. Any form of edging will minimize mulch runoff during severe weather.

That’s why we’re proud to offer attractive and affordable mulch in Kansas City. Our mulch is a great option to cover your flower beds and promote healthy plant growth.
