The mulch greatly enhances plant health and growth rates, while providing a service the community will appreciate. You also promote a greener, healthier environment. A successful program depends on providing wood chips that are home-landscaping quality. There can be chopped-up twigs, bark slivers, and leaves along with the wood chips. Make sure foreign material and other trash is not in the pile.
Site selection is very important.
The location must be accessible to large trucks and be safe for the public. It should have a paved surface, such as a parking lot. The site should be visible so it can be monitored easily or be in a fenced-in area to avoid trash dumping. After your site is determined, post sturdy signs that clearly identify free mulch. Be sure to mention hours of operation.
