Using compost as mulch is a smart way to protect your soil while improving its health at the same time. In Denver’s demanding climate—characterized by clay-heavy soils, intense sunlight, and limited rainfall—this method helps conserve moisture, enrich soil, and reduce ongoing landscape maintenance. When applied as a top layer, finished compost functions as both mulch and a slow-release soil amendment, suppressing weeds, regulating soil temperature, and delivering nutrients as water moves through the soil.

Compost mulching improves soil structure from the surface downward, allowing clay soils to drain more effectively while retaining moisture during dry conditions. While compost breaks down faster than bark or wood mulch and requires regular reapplication, it performs best on flat or gently sloped areas when fully finished and properly installed. When used correctly, compost mulch offers a sustainable, efficient solution for healthier Denver landscapes.Read more: https://milehighlifescape.com/compost-as-a-mulch/
