3. Mulch Paths

Overview:

Mulch is a practical option for garden pathways. It not only defines a walkway but also suppresses weeds and maintains moisture in the soil.

How to Create:

  • Materials Needed: Mulch (bark, wood chips, straw), landscape fabric (optional).
  • Instructions:
  1. Outline the pathway using stakes and string.
  2. Clear the area of any grass and weeds.
  3. Lay down landscape fabric if desired.
  4. Fill the pathway with mulch to a depth of about 2-3 inches.
