Services
Mulch Application
We provide professional mulch application services using high-quality hemlock bark mulch. Our equipment can blow materials up to 100 feet from the truck, reaching difficult areas around retaining walls and structures. The mulch helps retain soil moisture, regulate temperature, and prevent weed growth while adding aesthetic value to landscapes.
Topsoil Delivery
Our nutrient-rich topsoil blends combine 60% peat moss with 40% sandy loam to create optimal growing conditions. Available in screened and unscreened varieties, our topsoil meets municipal specifications and is ideal for lawns, gardens, and planting beds. We offer delivery and spreading services throughout Anchorage.
Compost Production
We produce premium worm compost from green waste materials using red wiggler worms. Our compost improves soil structure, retains moisture, and provides essential nutrients. Available in bulk or bagged formats, it's suitable for gardens, construction projects, and erosion control applications throughout Alaska.
Hydroseeding
Our hydroseeding service creates lush lawns quickly and cost-effectively. Using specialized equipment, we apply a mixture of grass seed, mulch, and fertilizer that promotes rapid germination. Custom seed blends are available for different growing conditions, including Alaska-specific grass varieties and wildflower mixes.
Fill Soil
We provide fill soil solutions for property grading and elevation projects. Our fill material consists of screened soil components that don't meet topsoil specifications but work well for filling large areas. This environmentally-friendly option repurposes materials that would otherwise go to waste while providing practical solutions for land development.
