Jokes have been made about people who buy dirt by people who think dirt is dirt. In Ormskirk, top soil for such people is whatever is on top of the planting ground. They will usually concede that the hard compacted ground needs to be turned over and tilled so water can be filtered and the roots of young plants can penetrate through the soil. Earthworms help by filtering the soil and refining it. What this soil is lacking is nutrients that have been lost to erosion. Many associate soil erosion with raging seas and high winds washing away the oceanside mansions. Your back garden has far less drama but the winds and water are still eroding your topsoil and depositing it elsewhere. The remedy is to buy dirt from us that contains everything erosion has shifted away.
In fact, laying our top soil in Ormskirk and planting the land is the best cure for erosion. Plants and rocks help hold the soil from blowing and washing away. Still, there will always be the process of erosion to some degree so as good stewards of the earth, we continue to transfer some of the nutrient dense topsoil to more arid locations. We manage the soil just as turf farmers like ourselves manage the soil so as not to deplete and allow land time to regenerate itself or rest. Contact DPM Topsoil when you’re ready to manage your land with rich nutrient dense topsoil for a healthy garden or sports field. You will be beautifying the land and slowing the progression of erosion in your corner of the world.
