Mulching with compost allows for moisture conservation by slowing evaporation and increasing the organic matter that can hold water. Mulching also keeps temperatures more even, protecting your tree’s roots from the heat of summer. As the mulch decomposes, it also improves soil fertility and structure. The nutrition in the compost releases slowly, giving those roots delicious food through the season. Of course, mulch also helps reduce unwanted plant growth around the base of the tree, reducing competition for that nutritious soil.

This program is made possible with funding provided by the New York City Council through A Greener NYC, a program of the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs. Snug Harbor thanks the Staten Island City Council Delegation for their generous allocations.

This program is made possible in part with funding from the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Urban and Community Forestry Program, which supports and assists communities in creating healthy community forests to enhance quality of life for urban residents.
