There isn’t much to say about top soil in Formby until you unknowingly buy an inferior product and innocently spread it throughout your garden. Soon after you may see weak and pale blades of grass shoot up and your flowerbed is full of weeds. Now there’s plenty to say and it’s not good. There are different grades of topsoil and for planting, you want what we sell; grade one. What you may have purchased is often referred to as general purpose or dug topsoil. You buy it just as it comes out of the ground. It’s not finely screened like grade one topsoil. It has some nutrients but not enough and it’s lumpy with clods, stones and vegetation. If you need to build up low areas in your garden or create a berm, this general-purpose topsoil is a good choice.

Know what you’re buying when you buy topsoil because the lowest grade of topsoil is used as backfill for industrial sites. In Formby, top soil of this grade may have never been screened or tested as safe for growing food. When you go in a garden store and buy a bag of topsoil how do you know where it came from? Grade one topsoil that is screened of all debris, rich in nutrients and beneficial for plant growth comes from our Manchester farm. You can look at it and you’ll see it’s dark and so fine it flows through your fingers. This is premium topsoil and it’s the only kind we supply. We’ll deliver it to you free of charge locally and even barrow it to where you want it.
