Topsoil – Finding Good Product

Q: Do you know of any business that sells quality topsoil by the bag rather than the woodchip-filled debris presently available?

A: Like you, I’ve been disappointed by the “dollar-a-bag” topsoil products I find at big-box stores. You can make an acceptable topsoil yourself by mixing ground pine bark or other organic material with your native soil. Many experienced gardeners swear by the Mr. Natural line of bagged topsoil products (greenstripe-products.com). They are usually found at independent garden centers .
