It's spring and many hardware stores are having sales on mulch. I managed to remulch my run for less than 40 bucks (mulch was 2 bucks a bag and I used 16 bags)
Now is the time of year to stock up on those mulch specials.



Speaking of colored mulch, I once watched a YouTube video where someone was spray painting old mulch to make it look new again. I know Dear Wife's red mulch loses its color long before the wood breaks down into compost. I don't know if buying that spray equipment and paint would be cost effective for us, but the professional landscaper was using it on his jobs. If I get time, I might have to look into that further.
