Topsoil
We provide high-quality shredded topsoil ideal for grading, lawn installation, and garden beds. Our topsoil is sourced from our farm in the Little Miami River Valley and processed fresh for each order. Available in bulk, it ensures optimal drainage and nutrient retention for residential and commercial landscaping projects.
Mulch
Our premium mulch products include Midnight Magic Supreme (organic hardwood) and color-enhanced mulches like Voodoo Black and Radiant Red. Locally produced to minimize environmental impact, these mulches improve soil health, retain moisture, and enhance landscape aesthetics for both home gardeners and professional contractors.
Compost
We offer aged horse manure, leaf mold, and mushroom compost to improve soil structure and fertility. These compost options increase water retention, enrich nutrient content, and promote healthy microbial activity. Suitable for organic gardening, raised beds, and large-scale landscaping projects requiring sustainable soil solutions.
