Applying Mulch for Erosion Control and Aesthetics

The Ugly Hill gets a makeover
What happens here
After the landscape fabric is in place, double-shredded hardwood mulch is systematically applied over the entire covered slope. The project manager explains the benefits of using this specific type of mulch: its interlocking fibers help it 'stick together' on slopes, effectively preventing erosion, retaining moisture, and suppressing weeds. This mulching step not only contributes to the stability of the slope but also enhances its visual appeal and creates an ideal environment for future ground cover shrubs.
Goal: A layer of double-shredded hardwood mulch is spread over the secured landscape fabric, providing further erosion control and preparing the site for planting.
