What is Topsoil Used For?

Topsoil is an important soil layer used in many gardens and landscapes. It provides plants with the necessary nutrients, minerals, and oxygen to help them grow and thrive. Topsoil also helps with drainage, retaining water and moisture for plants, and providing the necessary environment for microorganisms to survive. Topsoil is also essential for controlling a garden or landscape’s temperature and humidity levels, ensuring plants get the conditions they need. Topsoil can also be used as a natural mulch or cover material to protect soil and plants from erosion.

• Topdressing lawns
• A nutrient-packed base for new gardens, flowerbeds, seeding and fresh sod
• A great boost of nutrition in existing soil and gardens
• A healthy home for valuable microorganisms
