Seattle Summer mulch refreshing
As summer rolls into Seattle, homeowners often face the challenge of maintaining a vibrant and healthy landscape. One of the most effective solutions is refreshing your mulch. Over time, mulch can break down, lose its color, and become less effective at suppressing weeds and retaining moisture. A simple refresh can restore the beauty of your garden beds while providing numerous benefits such as enhanced curb appeal, improved safety, eco-friendliness, and reduced maintenance needs.
