If your yard’s starting to look tired or weeds are taking over, you’re not alone. A simple, affordable solution might be exactly what you need—mulch.
At Renew Landscaping, we help homeowners throughout Dakota County, MN and the surrounding areas keep their yards clean, healthy, and low maintenance. One of the best ways to do that? A fresh layer of mulch.
What Is Mulch?
Mulch is a layer of material—usually woodchips—spread over soil in garden beds, around trees, or near sidewalks. It helps retain moisture, blocks weeds, and gives your landscape a polished look. Plus, it’s an easy upgrade that adds long-term value to your yard.

5 Big Benefits of Mulch
1. Fewer Weeds: Mulch covers exposed soil and limits sunlight, which helps prevent new weeds from growing.
2. Better Moisture Retention: It helps the soil hold water longer, meaning less time spent watering during dry spells.
3. Year-Round Soil Protection: In summer, mulch keeps the ground cool. In winter, it keeps it warm. It’s year-round insulation for your landscape.
4. A Cleaner, Sharper Look: Fresh mulch instantly improves curb appeal and makes your whole yard look cleaner and more intentional.
5. Improved Soil Over Time: As mulch breaks down, it releases nutrients into the soil naturally—no extra fertilizer needed.
