Mulching is typically necessary once or twice a year, with spring being the most popular time. Over winter, old mulch breaks down and beds start looking thin, faded, and vulnerable to weeds. A fresh mulch application in Woodbury, Southbury, Middlebury, or Oxford keeps your beds looking sharp and your plants protected through the heat of summer. Fall mulching also helps insulate root systems heading into winter. Keeping up with your mulch schedule saves you time on weeding and keeps your landscape healthier overall.
