Our humus compost is made from 3 farm ingredients to make the best compost:
• Dairy cow manure
• Grass clippings
• Wheat stubble
Some sand enters the process from the gravel/sand pads where we make the compost.

Compost BigYellowBags are ideal for:
• Planting Trees and Shrubs: Provide the best start with nutrient-rich soil
• Flower Beds: Enhance growth and bloom by planting and topdressing with Soil³ Compost
• Topdressing established perennials, shrubs, or trees
• Topdressing Lawns: Boost nutrition and build soil health with regular topdressing
• New Lawn Installations: Whether laying sod or planting seeds, compost creates a solid foundation

1 BigYellowBag contains 1 cubic yard (or 27 cubic feet) and weighs from 1,500 to 1,700 lbs., depending on moisture content.
Measurements: Approximately 34” wide x 28" deep (footprint) and 36” tall.

To put it in perspective, 1 BigYellowBag equals 27 Mini Cubes.

• Preparing in-ground flower and shrub beds = 1 cubic yard per 500 sq. ft.
• Lawn: Aerating and topdressing = 1 cubic yard per 1,000 sq. ft.
• New lawn from sod: Amending soil before laying sod = 1 cubic yard per 1,000 sq. ft.
• New lawn from seed: Amending soil before planting = 1 cubic yard per 1,000 sq. ft.
• Mulch for newly seeded lawn: Cover seed with compost instead of straw = 1 cubic yard per 2,000 sq. ft.

Safety is a priority, so we prefer driveway delivery. However, if you can routinely drive your car to the location, we may be able to place your bag there. Our forklifts need 10' side-to-side clearance. Ground must be dry and not too steep.

First Time Gardener and I will never buy soil from Home Depot in plastic bags again

My first spring doing a veggie garden and I find this soil to be on STEROIDS! My neighbor who has been gardening for 20+ years cannot believe the results I am getting with lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, etc. (Atlanta area). I ordered a cubic yard of the Veggie Mix and a cubic yard of the compost. Totally thrilled with both products. Delivery was so easy and their driver was very friendly. Plus, I am not lugging bags of soil from the local big chain store to my house. Worse - the plastic from all of those 1.5 to 2 cubic foot bags goes into our garbage and landfills. I can either take the large Soil 3 bags back to a dealer OR I have split open the bags and put them in weedy areas and covered them with mulch. The Soil 3 bag is so thick that it smothers any weeds. I will NEVER go back to buying raised bed soil or compost from other vendors in small bags. I think it is brilliant that Soil 3 (whose main business is growing sod) pivoted to add this product to their line up. I hope they keep it up!
