Want trash in your garden soil? Well this is the place to go! Seriously, what you will get is mostly rocks, large twigs, and tons of trash. It's almost like they picked this up from the nearest landfill! Before I bought 3/4 yard from them I asked as many questions as I could and they couldn't tell me much aside from the fact that they source it from some undisclosed location. I asked if I could know where that was so that I could contact them and ask about the ratios of compost to sand it contains and they wouldn't tell me. They also don't know the difference between garden soil and compost because they said it was the same thing! So when I brought this trash home I started filling my raised beds immediately. Due to the obscene amount of garbage in it, a job that should have taken me about 2 hours max to unload, fill wheel barrow, and dump into the beds, took three days! I had wasted so much valuable time sifting through this crap picking out pieces of plastic, large rocks, shards of glass from what looks like broken beer bottles (yes, glass!), clothing fibers, large twigs, and tons of mulch. I am just glad I was wearing thick gloves and my daughter wasn't helping me this time because with the amount of glass in this "garden soil" someone was bound to get a deep cut. I try my very best to grow my family's food in the most organic way possible, and now I can't even say that because all of my raised beds are now contaminated with this crap. Even after picking out as much trash as possible it still doesn't seem right to use this stuff, but now it's too late. If you care at all about what goes into your garden, please avoid this place like the plague!
Great benefit for our city! This company will have planting supplies , trees and plants ( includes native types) in the spring. We can support this Crown Point business and not have to drive far. The greenhouse is spacious ( 7000 square feet) and has two furnaces during cold weather, several bathrooms for the customers and holds an occasional workshop or class from planting experts. I just attended a free class in January.
Same here- I picked up a half yard of garden mix and it had trash as well. Needs to be sifted. Be careful when using your hands- found pieces of glass in the load as well.
I’ve just recently got pots for our porch and I’m learning how to group. The ladies at Niemeyer’s today were so sweet and helpful with creating two of these arrangements for each side of our front door!
