The Mulch Fairy paid me a visit!

Post by evil ed »

Greetings all!

For four years, my Garden space went unused, due to 2 bad knees, and a bad hip (thanks Mom). I decided to give it a shot to get it ready for next year. The local "Tree Butchers" were in the neighborhood clearing branches from powerlines. Being the nosy cuss that I am, I enquired what they did with all of the chipped material. They told me they had to haul it about 20 miles to a spot where they could dump it. They told me they could not dump it until the truck was full, but if I wanted that much, I could have it! On Monday I came home to a HUGE (10'x12'x7') pile of chipped branches, leaves and limbs put right where they said they would!

Well, I'm quite jealous of you! Mulch, when you need several bags of it is quite pricey and to get that nice thick layer ( so the weeds to pop through), one bag doesn't go very far. We're about to buy more mulch to get our lovely plants ready for winter.

Enjoy your gift from such a kind mulch fairy :)

Sounds like a real treat!! and it helped them out as they would of had to haul it so far away.
