Beginning of the gardening season: 3 easy steps!

Step 1: Weed your garden prior to application
Step 2: Place a 2-3 inch layer of straw while remaining 1 inch away from crowns and stems
Step 3: Water thoroughly - this ensures the straw stays in place naturally!

During the gardening season:

  • Water as needed - Simply push back a little of the straw mulch so you can test the soils’ moisture
  • Re-apply mulch when the previous layer of straw is breaking down and getting thin (1-3 times, depending on length of growing season).

At the end of the gardening season:

Simply mix it back into the soil or leave it as protection for your soil! GardenStraw decomposes quickly and improves your soils’ health and fertility.

Is GardenStraw 100% wheat seed free?

Due to the nature of the sustainably sourced wheat plant, not all wheat seeds are removed from the straw during harvest. Through our unique and all-natural process, we filter out most wheat seeds. While we strive to remove every wheat seed, it’s not a perfect process; therefore, occasional wheat seeds will sneak through and may sprout in your garden.

That said, unlike grass and weeds, once the wheat seedling is removed (easy to pluck), it won’t regrow and you will continue to experience the many benefits of the GardenStraw mulch - water conservation, weed growth prevention, protecting soils’ microbiome and plants from soil borne diseases, and more.

Good Product

Great, clean product.

Still the best

Have been buying this straw for a few years…I like that the straw is cut up more than others so easier to apply in containers or around small spaces. However it now seems to contain more sprouting wheat seeds. The 1st year it was virtually “clean”-very few seeds sprouting…the next year I spent the whole season pulling wheat sprouts…not hard to do just frustrating. Last year there was a straw shortage so didn’t receive any until the winter freeze set in so won’t know until spring how this shipment is. Having said that, I will still continue to buy from this company because even with the sprouting, it is much better and cheaper than competitors straw so I will keep buying it for my raised beds.

Highly Useful

I use this mulch on nearly all my plants and it's very well worth every penny. It's so lightweight and delicate that I can cut it into very small pieces and use it on 4" pots and even seedling trays after they've sprouted. It really helps retain water and keeps soil significantly cooler. Once it gets wet it sticks and won't blow away. It will produce grass weeds fairly regularly, though they are easily dispatched. Highly recommend, I usually buy 3-4 bales per year.

Great product

Straw was as advertised. Tiny amount of wheat seeds (maybe 8 in half a bag). Would recommend to anyone needing a small amount of straw for containers.

So many benefits

Love this straw. Thanks to Kevin and Jaques from Epic Gardening for turning me onto it. I've had zero weed seed problems. It looks nice in my raised bed and in ground garden. It helps the plants stay the correct temperature, keeps weeds out, holds in moisture (almost too well, be careful not to over water). Highly recommend! *I just wish it was a little cheaper. But I will say, a little goes a long way.

Won't garden without it!

This is my third year purchasing GardenStraw and will not garden without it now. In the dry, hot, inland valleys of California it's critical to mulch for successful results and to conserve/lower water usage - this has been the best mulch we've used to help with that - AND it looks great! Thank you so much for carrying this and for the quick delivery and customer service!

Best garden straw yet

I have tried other organic straw and this shredded straw wins hands down. Easy to place around plants, easy to manipulate to allow air flow around base of plants and it stays in place. I place once and have not had to add to it. Would recommend this product.

Large bales did the trick

I bought several bales for my raised beds as well as in-ground veggie and flower beds, both for evaporation loss and some weed control, and it has worked well on both fronts. I haven't had any appreciable sprouting, and it looks quite attractive. Overall I'm quite happy!

Happy

Very happy with this product. It is cut to a perfect size, making it easy to handle and place around plants. It is doing a good job of keeping moisture in. I am doing a square foot garden and this helps to keep my bed neat and organized. Would buy again. Thanks!

Great quality. Will use for hay bale gardening.

It is difficult to find clean, organic straw. I had a negative experience with another company. The straw was contaminated and inhibited the growth of my veggies. This straw is excellent and I look forward to growing vegetables in it.
