Topsoil

• Topsoil is the uppermost layer of soil, typically the top 5 to 10 inches, rich in organic matter and nutrients, making it vital for plant growth. This layer is where most of the Earth’s biological soil activity occurs, as it contains the highest concentration of organic matter and microorganisms. It’s crucial for the health and productivity of gardens, lawns, and agricultural land, providing plants with essential nutrients, water, and a medium for root development.
• Quality topsoil should have a balanced mixture of clay, silt, and sand, known as loam, offering the best conditions for water retention, nutrient supply, and aeration. It plays a pivotal role in supporting a diverse ecosystem, including bacteria, fungi, worms, and insects, which all contribute to the decomposition of organic material and the recycling of nutrients.
•  Gardeners and landscapers often add topsoil to enhance the soil’s structure, improve drainage, and increase fertility, especially in areas where the existing soil is poor or depleted. Whether establishing a new garden, laying a lawn, or creating raised beds, incorporating high-quality topsoil can significantly impact plant health and growth.
• Topsoil is available in bulk bags and loose loads
