My First Load of Arborist Wood Chip Mulch for the Garden

I Got Free Mulch! Don’t Worry Husband, I’ll Take Care Of It!

When A-girl and I took the dog for a walk after we put G on the bus today, I heard the tell tale sound of trees being chipped somewhere close by.

I brought Kylie home and put my baby girl in the car to find them only 2 blocks from the house, with a truck just about full of chipped trees! ALRIGHT!

I asked one of the guys, “Any way I can get some of those wood chips? Maybe half the truck? I live 2 blocks away.” He says, “Well…” shaking his head… “I wanna dump the whole truck.”

Help me Rhonda.

I said, “Ok. I live at 924 – put it right in the driveway.”

5 minutes later one of the guys is tromping through my herb garden bed to direct the truck up and oversee the dumping!! But, hey! I got LOTS of free mulch!

I love that all the leaves are mixed in there too…. Oh yeah – Look out. I’m gonna have some kickin’ pathways and a nice thick border all around my fence perimeter. Hooray!!
