Conserve Water, Save Your Trees and Your Landscape by Mulching, and help Plano Scouts 27 at the same time.
There is no time to spare. Each year countless gallons of water and thousands of dollars in landscaping costs can be saved by proper mulching.
The Importance of Mulching
Trees - Mulch is valuable for your trees health and care because it:
  • Insulates the soil helping to provide a buffer from heat and cold temperatures
  • Retains water helping to keep the roots moist
  • Keeps weeds out to help prevent root competition
  • Prevents soil compaction
  • Reduces lawn mower damage
Plant beds - Mulch is valuable for your plant beds because it:
  • Helps retain moisture, which leads to healthier plant stock
  • Creates a layer around plantings reduces weed growth
  • Adds nutrients to the soil due to its natural decay
  • Helps prevents plant stock from getting hit or damaged from lawn equipment
In addition to the above, mulch adds beauty and uniformity to landscaping at a minimal cost.
Save time and money and help our Plano 27 scouts learn how to Work Hard by letting them provide this service.
