Our bio soil will take your garden from soil to seedlings to salad. Contact us today to learn more about our bio soil and/or to schedule your delivery.

At The Mulch Yard in Greensboro, we offer a wide variety of mulch, pine straw, sand, soil, and gravel available for pick or delivery. In this video, owner, Jeremy Campbell, explains the different kinds of mulches, how they differ, and where they work best. Read on and watch our video to learn which type of mulch will best meet your needs!

Our different kinds of mulch include:

• Double-Ground Hardwood Mulch is great on banks or areas that have water
• Pine Bark Mini-Nuggets make beautiful flower beds.
• Decorative Dyed Mulches are available in brown, red, and black.
• Cedar Mulch is made from the whole tree being ground up. They are great for dog lots because it repels fleas and ticks and has a great smell.
• Certified Playground Mulch has been ground and chipped so it has no rough edges making it safe for kids to play in. It is often used on playgrounds and in schools, daycares, churches, and even for personal use.

Customers who have a history of buying bags of mulch are often intimidated by the prospect of buying mulch in bulk. It can be confusing to figure out how much you need, and how you are going to get it spread. The Mulch Yard has solutions!

Q: How do I convert bags to cubic yards?
A: There are 27 cubic feet in a cubic yard. Most bagged mulch is sold in 2 cubic foot bags. So, for every 13.5 bags, you need one cubic yard. Example: If you used 54 bags last year, you would get the same amount of mulch in 4 cubic yards. Continue reading “I’ve Always Bought Mulch in Bags, Why Should I Buy Bulk?”

At Mulchyard, our pine straw suppliers are all family-owned operations in the Sandhills of North Carolina. Most of the fields we use are in the Pinehurst community. Trash, pine cones, bark, rocks, etc are removed before baling to ensure there is no debris mixed in with the pine needles. From there, our pine needles are hand-raked and baled, using box balers. Hand-baled pine straw is packed much tighter ensuring that each bale holds more pine straw.

All the needles we purchase our fresh. In fact, we can ensure that our needles go from the field to the customer within a week. Most big box stores take anywhere from months to years to get their product out to the consumer.

Fresh NC pine needles that have been hand-raked and hand-baled last much longer and provide more ground cover than pine needles purchased in a store. They provide the best value for your home or business while benefiting local businesses. Contact us today for an estimate of your ground cover project. We are proud to offer pine straw spreading in addition to our pick-up and delivery service.
