The Waste Managment Company here that runs our local landfill has a special division that only accepts and processes green waste, leaves, branches, plant based stuff, you know. They run it through a shredder and cook it all winter for compost. the lesser cooked and courser material that looks like what you have is indeed $5 a yard. I'm trying to get a compost pile going, but it's pretty hurting. It's a goal for this year though!<BR/>P~P~https://www.blogger.com/profile/13403847624491620709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-84438078652788636342007-04-19T17:05:00.000-04:002007-04-19T17:05:00.000-04:00Now that's a mountain of mulch?

It's usually about $25/yard here in Northern New Jersey. <BR/><BR/>Well at least my compost is free. <BR/>:)Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06836531596317603886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-11406560157421403072007-04-19T14:07:00.000-04:002007-04-19T14:07:00.000-04:00Wow, that's a lot of mulch.

I get my mulch and yes, (head lowered eyes staring at the ground in shame) my compost from the local green waste recycling center as well. At twenty bucks a yard of good compost, and 5 a yard for mulch you can't beat it.P~https://www.blogger.com/profile/13403847624491620709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-45635005559656081352007-04-19T11:01:00.000-04:002007-04-19T11:01:00.000-04:00You just reminded me that I need to order more mul...You just reminded me that I need to order more mulch...thanks :-)Colleen Vanderlindenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08396040906688814232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15257330.post-52634340095628512822007-04-19T08:37:00.000-04:002007-04-19T08:37:00.000-04:00I hope it's enough.

The only trouble with that is I don't know how much pesticide and fertilizers are in the mulch. I guess when it cooks and is left in the rain a lot of the chemicals leach out but I'm still a little wary.<BR/><BR/>Our neighbor bought a truckload last year of triple milled compost. After putting it around all his plants he gave me about at 2-3 cubic yards of the stuff if I would haul it away which I gladly did. His wife was none too happy that he gave it away free.Kihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05576859749293959381noreply@blogger.com
