Looking for ways to drought-proof your garden? Our friends at City of Wilmington, NC Government are hosting a mulch giveaway until 2:30 at Legion Stadium! Check it out 👇

🌱 Free Mulch Giveaway is back! 🌱

Looking to refresh your yard or garden? Stop by the Legion Stadium overflow lot this Friday and pick up free mulch while supplies last.

Heads up: supply is running low, so there will be a limit on how much each person can take to help ensure more residents have a chance to participate.

Come early (we start at 8 a.m.) — once it’s gone, it’s gone!

And if mulch runs out, don’t worry, we still have plenty of stump grindings available.
