Ways to Use Garden Straw Mulch Pro+
Practical Applications
Garden Mulch
Spread a layer of straw around your plants to make a mulch. This keeps the soil moist, helps control its temperature, and stops weeds from growing.
Composting
Include straw in your compost pile or bin. It acts as a carbon-rich “brown” material to balance out the nitrogen-rich “green” stuff like kitchen scraps or grass clippings. Tear or cut the straw into smaller pieces to help it break down faster.
Soil Amendment
Mix our seedless straw into your garden soil to enhance its structure and ability to hold water.
Erosion Control
Put loose straw in areas where erosion often happens, like slopes or bare soil, to stop soil from washing away when it rains or gets windy.
100% ORGANIC:
100% Organic: Grown in USDA Certified Organic fields on local family farms in the Pacific Northwest. USDA organic means no GMOs, antibiotics, herbicides, or toxic chemicals are used, making our organic garden straw safe for you and your pets!

MOISTURE RETENTION AND COOLING:
Using organic garden straw mulch helps keep your soil moist for longer, reducing the need for frequent watering.

This means crops like cilantro, lettuce, spinach, broccoli, and others can thrive longer in warmer months.

Step 2: Prepare your garden bed
Clear the garden bed of any weeds, debris, or unwanted plants.
Loosen the soil with a garden fork or tiller to enhance aeration and drainage.
Step 3: Water the garden bed
Before laying down the straw, thoroughly water the garden bed to ensure moist soil.
Step 4: Spread the straw
Take a handful of straw and spread it evenly over the surface of the garden bed, starting from one end and moving to the other.
Try to create a layer of straw approximately 2-4 inches thick. This will help suppress weeds and retain moisture in the soil.
Step 5: Avoid plant stems
While spreading the straw, be cautious not to cover the stems or crowns of any existing plants in your garden. Piling straw around stems can cause moisture buildup and possible rot.
Step 6: Fill in the gaps
Pay attention to any gaps or bare spots in the straw coverage, and add more straw as necessary. The aim is to establish a uniform layer across the entire garden bed.
Step 7: Water the straw
After applying the straw, gently water it to help settle it down and ensure good contact with the soil below.
Step 8: Monitor moisture levels
Check the moisture levels in your garden bed regularly, especially during dry periods. While the garden straw mulch aids in retaining moisture, you may still need to water your plants as needed.
Step 9: Reapply as needed
Over time, the straw may break down or be blown away. Reapply straw as necessary to keep a consistent layer, continue suppressing weeds, and retain moisture.
