Gaston’s Red Hardwood Mulch is the byproduct of recycled, local hardwood trees like oak, magnolia, persimmon, and cherry. Our hardwood mulch is made from double ground hardwood tree debris and is a welcome addition to most yards and gardens due to its similarity to the trees in our ecosystem. Additionally, in the Southeast’s typically acidic soil, Gaston Red Hardwood Mulch provides an alkaline balance as it breaks down into the soil. Our Red Hardwood Mulch is created by using dry blended pigments of iron oxide, a natural resource that is safe for your family, your pets, and your plants. Gaston Red Hardwood Mulch, like all our mulches:
Reduces soil moisture evaporation
Helps suppress weeds and prevent weed germination
Insulates the soil from extreme temperature changes
Reduces soil erosion and compaction
Gradually decomposes adding valuable organic material to the soil
