Los Alamos County Offers Mulch Delivery Service
COUNTY News:
Using mulch is an important way to maintain a healthy landscape.
Mulch helps keep the soil moist, which is beneficial for those that live in a dry climate where water is limited. It helps keep the soil temperature cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.
As mulch decays into the soil below, the soil quality increases with all the nutrients from the mulch. Weeding time is reduced when using mulch in garden beds, giving you more time to enjoy the garden.
Environmental Services has mulch available for your landscape needs. Residents have the opportunity to come to the Eco Station to Read More

What’s more likely: that the decent candidates elected barely 18 months ago have since turned into sinister and/or incompetent demons, or that they are working hard, nights and weekends, reading reports and data that you and I aren’t reading, and Read More
