On gardening with Bill Cary

Mulch, by the Yard

June
23

I got mulch, sold by the yard, delivered last year for the first time. What a pleasant change from dragging bag after bag from nurseries and home centers. You think you have plenty for a project, but you always have to go back for another bag or two.

This year, I decided to get 5 yards.

Look at the steam coming up from the pile of mulch—very fresh and composty.

About the author
Katie Bill Cary grew up in Louisville, Ky. His gardening was limited to growing parsley and impatiens on the windowsill of Manhattan walkups until the mid-1990s when he bought a rundown old chicken farm on 8 acres in the Hudson Valley. Now he spends his weekends chasing deer, hacking away at invasive shrubs and vines and wondering why he doesn`t have more meadow and less lawn.
