Organic mulching is the practice of applying a layer of organic material, such as wood chips, straw, leaves, or compost, to the surface of the soil in garden beds, around trees, and in landscaped areas. This mulch helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, regulate soil temperature, and improve soil health as it decomposes. Organic mulching is a key component of sustainable landscaping, as it reduces the need for chemical herbicides, conserves water, and enhances soil fertility over time. The decomposition of organic mulch adds valuable nutrients to the soil, promoting healthy plant growth and supporting beneficial soil organisms. When applying organic mulch, it’s important to maintain an even layer and avoid piling it directly against the stems or trunks of plants, as this can lead to rot or pest issues. Organic mulching is a simple yet effective way to improve the sustainability and resilience of landscapes.
