Enhance your landscape with natural mulch from Earth to You Landscape Supply
By Patricia Nugent
With so many folks working from home, slowing down a bit, and gazing out their windows at shaggy, spotty lawns and drab flower beds, it’s no surprise that Earth to You Landscape Supply in Westlake is having a very busy start to spring.
“Now is the optimum time to amend your yard by laying grass seed and mulch for the healthiest, best-looking landscape,” says owner Gary Case. “In past years, people may have been too busy to notice that their yards might have needed a little extra TLC.”
Over the past 30 years, this family-owned, full-service supply supercenter has evolved to meet Northeast Ohio’s landscaping material needs. They offer everything from mulch to topsoil, peat moss, stone, decorative gravel and premium grass seed mixes developed especially for our area, as well as fertilizers and weed control, tools, straw, seasoned firewood and more.
“We are proud of our reputation for only offering the highest quality products, meticulously maintained equipment and courteous, dependable staff,” says Gary.
“We wash our fleet of 12 delivery trucks every evening to deter any opportunity of contamination of our materials. We go the extra mile by storing bulk landscaping materials in concrete bins with concrete floors to protect our materials from any contamination. What also sets us apart is our ability to accommodate same-day delivery, even during the spring rush.”
Quality Makes the Mulch
“There is a night-and-day difference between high- and low-quality mulch,” says Operations Manager Shawn Varga.
“You get what you pay for. Other bulk mulch suppliers and most big box stores sell lower quality grades of mulch that contain construction debris, recycled pallets and other tainted materials. You won’t find any of these foreign materials in any of our mulches. We pride ourselves in carrying a full line of mulches that consist only of natural wood and bark materials.”
Earth to You is an exclusive partner with Smith Bros., a family-owned and operated company headquartered in Medina.
“Their mulch is created from virgin logs and bark from the timber industry and is simply the highest quality raw material you can buy,” says Shawn. “It comes directly from the sawmills in local Amish communities in Holmes County, other counties in Ohio and surrounding states. We carry more than 10 different types of mulch that will fit any budget and are extremely proud to feature Smith Bros. Grandscape and Timber Ridge lines of mulch as our flagship choices.”
He says working only with high-quality materials provides the safest approach to beautifying your yard. Made with natural wood, bark and water-based dyes ensures all of their mulches are child-, pet- and environmentally-friendly.
“Because our materials are all-natural, they break down more slowly and evenly, allowing potent nutrients to reach plants and shrubs,” says Shawn. “They also retain their color longer.”
In addition to mulch, the company is a leading provider of premium products to produce the greenest, lushest lawns possible, including organic topsoil, sweet peat and leaf compost, all locally sourced.
The Earth to You staff has decades of experience in the landscape and green industry and can help guide local homeowners and contractors through any lawn, landscape or gardening project.
