Mulching

Mulching is the last item you should think about with a garden, some benefits mulching gives you is that it helps with watering- less evaporation especially with our wicked Arizona heat! It also keeps the ground cooler that helps with less heat. When mulching around your garden plants there's less chance to see weeds plus it looks great in a garden. There is a few places to get mulch, home supply stores or a little place called Singh Farms where you can get a truckload for cheap. They are located on Thomas just east of the 101 freeway. Adding a little mulch to your compost pile is a good thing to do also.
