RE: Wild Tip - Fall is a Good Time for Mulch

Indeed it is a good time. Such as in nature. In nature, the trees in a forest drop their leaves, covering the ground. This covering protects the enormous ecosystem that lives below the soil....the beneficial bugs, the beneficial bacteria and fungi, and the seeds the trees dropped. It's a closing of a circle so to speak. We top our beds off in fall too.

Very good point! :) Mimicking nature tends to always workout well. On cold nights at my place the mulch freezes but the soil stays relatively warm and the critters stay active under the frozen mulch. Thanks for the comment!
