mulch, soil, & amendments
everything you need to
Amend Your Soil
Beautiful, bountiful gardens start with healthy, dark, nutrient-rich soil. Here in Michigan, homeowners working in the landscape sometimes encounter heavy clay, compacted, infertile, and even sandy soil. These conditions can create challenges for digging, root development, and nutrient absorption. The good news is, a little soil amending goes quite a long way! Here at Farmer John’s, you’ll find the strongest selection of soil amendments to address our region’s needs. Mulches are also available in many types and colors, which properly completes any planting activity by serving as a layer of protection for the plant material.

Microbial populations are responsible for recycling organic waste which makes the soil more porous allowing air, water, and grassroots to penetrate deeper.
