Hemlock Bark (Bulk)

• 1/2 yard: 566 lbs. 
• Yard: 1131 lbs. 

This mulch blend contains mostly fine hemlock, which is darker in appearance than plain fir bark. It also has fewer slivers making it great for gardeners, and families with children or pets. In addition to providing an attractive darker colored contrast to lawn or shrubs, when used as a mulch/groundcover, hemlock blend helps retain moisture, thwart weed growth, and prevent erosion.

How Much Product Do I Need? 

Calculate how many cubic yards are needed by using the following formula: 

• L = length (in feet) 
• W = width (in feet) 
• D = depth (in inches) 
• (L x W x D x .083)/27 = cubic yards  

By The Numbers 

• 27 – one cubic ft. bags = 1 cubic yard of product 
• 13.5 – two cubic ft. bags = 1 cubic yard of product 
• 9 – three cubic ft. bags = 1 cubic yard of product 
• 4 X 4 ft. raised bed 1 ft. deep requires .6 yards 
• 4 X 8 ft. raised bed 1 ft. deep requires 1.2 yards 
• 8 X 10 ft. flower bed 2 inches deep requires .5 yards
