Did you know that mulch helps your soil to hold its moisture?  Adding organic mulch to your garden is also a fantastic way to introduce extra nutrients into your soil!  Westchester Tree Life can also create your own mulch with a wood chipping service, if you have a tree that needs to be removed; this is a great, eco-friendly way to clean up a hazardous tree.

Benefits of Mulch

Mulch is not only aesthetically-pleasing, it works wonders for your garden!  Mulch slows weed growth, increases soil quality and gives your property a finished, manicured look.  Overall, adding mulch to your garden will save you time and energy, making it an amazing addition.  Adding mulch to your swing set’s area is also a great idea!

Mulch Varieties

There are so many varieties of mulch to choose from.  If you are unsure which mulch would benefit your Westchester garden best, ask Westchester Tree Life!  Call Westchester Tree Life today at (914) 238-0069!

Shredded Hardwood mulch is natural and can last anywhere from one to three years.  To add dark, rich color (and a temporary chocolatey fragrance), try Cocoa Mulch; though this is a more expensive option, you can get away with using a thin 1″ layer.  If you are looking for a sustainable, eco-friendly option, consider using compost!  Chocked full of vitamins and nutrients, compost will enrich your soil and is a perfect soil additive for new gardens.

Fresh wood chips are a traditional mulching option which provides an elegant finish, while making use of any trees that you would like removed.  To request a consultation for a wood chipping service in Westchester County, fill out Westchester Tree Life’s online consultation form here.
