Topsoil is the uppermost layer of soil, typically the top 2 to 8 inches, and is rich in organic matter, nutrients, and microorganisms essential for healthy plant growth. Dark in color and soft in texture, quality topsoil is well-aerated and has good moisture retention, making it ideal for gardening, landscaping, lawn installation, and agricultural use.
It serves as the foundation for plant life, supporting root development and providing the nutrients necessary for strong, vibrant growth. Topsoil can be screened for a finer consistency, removing rocks and debris, which is especially useful for lawns, flower beds, and seeding.
Whether you’re laying sod, planting shrubs, or filling garden beds, topsoil is an essential material for creating and maintaining healthy, productive landscapes.
