What’s the deal with mulch? Why do we do it? Where does it come from? Mulch is a noun, a verb, and--for many--a pile of mystery. On this episode, we delve into mulch's history, weigh in on the bag vs. bulk debate, and call into question the whole dang practice. Roll up your sleeves and grab a shovel, because your hosts are here to deliver many, many cubic yards of mulch facts!
