A blend designed for gardeners who want to pack a mineral punch and witness results. The 50/50 Garden Mix combines half screened topsoil and half nutrient-rich compost. Combined, layered together, not pre-blended, to let you control how they interact. The topsoil provides structure and drainage, while the compost adds natural nutrients and organic matter. Ideal for raised garden beds, vegetable patches, and flower gardens, this mix delivers rich texture, fertility, and aeration, ready to grow from day one.
Common Uses:
- DIY raised gardens: Homeowners want easy, nutrient-rich soil to "fill and grow."
- Lawn renovations: Contractors recommend it as the ideal base for grass seed.
- Organic growth focus: More customers want natural soil health without synthetic fertilizers.
