MOISTURE RETENTION & COOLING
Our Organic Garden Straw retains moisture, keeping your soil wet longer and reducing the frequency you need to water your garden. The protective straw cover also shades your soil so cool season crops don’t bolt as soon and grow longer into the warmer months.
NEW LAWN SEEDING
Great for new yard applications! Garden straw provides warmth and moisture for early spring and late fall grass seed applications. It protects grass seed from scouring due to rain, overwatering or high winds so your new grass growing is off to a great start!
NATURAL COMPOSTING
Unlike artificial fabrics, chemicals and covers, organic garden straw is actually good for your garden. Straw naturally composts and slowly adds nutrients back to the soil. Your garden and lawn will remain truly organic while improving your soil and encouraging worm habit.
EFFECTIVE WEED BARRIER
Since organic straw mulch blocks out the sun, it can help prevent weeds from growing. Garden straw covers the soil which stops unwanted seed germination from weeds. It can also save on high summer water bills.

Moisture Retention & Cooling
Organic straw mulch helps keep your soil cool and moist, reducing the need to water as often. It’s especially helpful for cool-season crops like lettuce, cilantro, spinach, and broccoli, preventing them from bolting too early in warm weather and also helpful for saving water for warm season crops such as tomatoes, peppers, squash, eggplant and others—saving you time, water, and effort.
Lawn Seeding Support
Perfect for new lawns or yard projects! Garden straw mulch helps protect grass seed from scouring, grass seed stay in place, keeping it from washing away in heavy rain or wind. It maintains the right moisture and warmth to support healthy germination—especially in early spring and late fall. It also suppresses weed growth, giving your new grass the best chance to thrive without competing for nutrients or sunlight.
Composting Made Easy

It’s carbon-rich, porous, and has the ideal texture to help you create nutrient-rich compost while supporting sustainable waste practices.
