Our Forest Floor Mulch looks, smells and feels just like the forest floor! It is created from chipped and ground woody materials, to which we add 10% of our Soilutions Compost, making it ideal for garden beds, tree wells, or anywhere your plants need an extra boost of nutrients. Forest Floor mulch ranges in length from 1/2" to 4".
Mulch is a necessity in any garden! Not only does it beautify your landscape, it provides crucial protection for your soil and plants. Mulch adds a beautiful layer to your soil that suppresses weeds, improves water retention and builds soil health. It also acts as a buffer against extreme temperature fluctuations, helping to insulate soil in the winter and protect from extreme heat in the summer.

Soilutions products are sold in bulk quantities measured by the cubic yard (3’x3’x3’). Our handy coverage calculator will help you easily figure out how much compost, soil, or mulch you need for a successful project.

Just like a forest floor! Watered it in after putting it where I wanted it, and it locks together nicely so the wind and accidentally lawn mower hits won't move it
Great cover for our flower beds and around tree trunks. We also put some around the walking paths around raised garden beds. It does tend to be subject to those strong winds though so thoughtful of where you put it.
Service was excellent. Online ordering is easy.
Quality of Forest Floor Mulch is gold!
great product and service (delivery)
Delivery of mulch and soil here was quick, easy and exactly what I expected. After several deliveries over several years I am completely satisfied.
Not only is the product amazing and the customer service beyond friendly, I got to revel in my inner kid happiness! Watching a dump truck on my land toodle around and drop off a big pile of mulch for me to play in and plant stuff with is everything my 6 year old self dreamed of!!🥰
Great mulch and he put it in the most convenient part of the yard for us.
I like the dark color, but it still keeps the ground cool
Driver was excellent. Delivery timely, product was good , clean bark. Thank you!
Wonderful!
