Screened topsoil
Topsoil
**Please note that all topsoil blends sold by Earth First may require amendment to reduce naturally occurring PH to the optimum level required for the purchasers application.
Topsoil is a very important start for any yard or raised garden bed. Topsoil is the layer of soil that holds all the nutrients that feed your lawn and plants. Topsoil is also the layer where your grass and plants extend their roots. Having good topsoil will allow your lawn and plants to grow strong roots and grow to their fullest potential.
Earth First topsoil is blended with our own compost, manufactured on site at our Greenville and Highway 403 locations. Our compost is made from tree limbs, leaves, grass clippings, and straw. This yard waste compost not only adds nutrients to the soil, but also helps retain moisture and aids in reducing soil compaction.
The topsoil and compost are screened to remove sticks, rocks, and other debris. Please keep in mind that it is possible for some small sticks and stones to fall through the screens from time to time. Any organic material that remains after screening will continue to decompose and enrich your soil as a result.
Compost
**Our compost is derived from mostly leaves, sticks and brush that we accept from customers and municipalities in the form of yard waste. Instead of this yard waste filling the landfills, we wanted to do our part to help the environment and create a useful product. In years past, some municipalities accepted the yard waste in plastic bags. Even though we have a screening process and do our best to screen out the plastic and sticks occasionally some will make it through. Please be advised that you may find some of this in our compost. No refunds or credit will be given for this reason.
Earth First compost is made from locally sourced land clearing and yard waste materials such as tree limbs, leaves and brush.
Our bulk compost is for sale at all five Earth First locations. We advise you to come in and see products before ordering.
