Kolze’s carries a locally provided ORGANIC Veggie Compost that works great in raised beds, perennial beds, around shrubs, trees, and in the grass. This great compost mixture provides the nutrients needed to enrich the soil resulting in bigger and better yields.
What makes Kolze’s Premium Bark Mulch better than other hardwood mulches is the high percent of Bark that is processed into the mix, not how many times it has been processed. A high quantity of bark is desirable in a mulch because it doesn’t breakdown quickly, and the shredded bark doesn’t compete for nitrogen or moisture with the soil.

Prices
- Premium Hickory Bark Mulch 2 cu. $6.99 each, 5 or more $6.50 each
- Bulk Premium Hickory Bark Mulch $59.00/yd
***Unfortunately we are unable to do mulch deliveries at this time. Mulch is sold by the yard if picked up in an open trailer or the bed of a pickup truck. Menard’s in Woodstock has rent-able pickup trucks that we have confirmed are cleared to pick up mulch.***
1 cubic yd will cover
- 162 Sq Ft = 2″ thick
- 108 Sq Ft = 3″ thick
- 54 Sq Ft = 6″ thick
Idea: Make a list of the dimensions of the areas you want to cover to find the total square footage you want to cover.
Example:
- Area 1 – 10’x10′ cover 2″ thick = 100 sq ft
- Area 2 – 8’x8′ cover 2″ thick = 64 sq ft
- Total square footage = 164 sq ft
What do customers say?
This place is great! Bob Kolze, the owner, is very knowledgeable and helpful. The flower combinations he creates are just beautiful! I’ve gotten my pole green beans here last year when I lived in Chicago & they did so well I came back for more.
The folks at Kolze’s are always Johnny on Spot to help choosing the best options for your specific needs. Have been going there for quite a while.
Love my poinsettia. I purchased it in November and it is still beautiful. Will never buy one anywhere else.
This grower is definitely the best around. They grow their own plants, teach you how to care for them, and don’t use any growth inhibitors or anything else destructive. Awesome people!
Just happened upon this nursery and have been back 4 times, the plants are so healthy and prices are best around. Plus the information i get on how to best grow each plant is wonderful..1st time i have been able to keep fuchsia alive! Thanks Kolze’s
Bob and his crew are always helpful. The quality of their flowers and other plant material cannot be beat. About 8 years ago I moved to Whitewater, WI, but I still travel to Kolze’s throughout the year to buy flowers, bagged mulch and other garden supplies. There just isn’t anyone else I’ve found that delivers a better product. They also share their knowledge of plant care – as a result, my hanging baskets have lasted well into November. Thanks, guys.
This is my favorite garden center–healthy plants, knowledgeable staff, unique gifts, great yard art, plus we love shopping down in this area.
