“Started a little garden program for the kids at our daycare in Elkins this year, three small raised beds where they could plant beans and pumpkins and actually watch something grow. West Virginia Rock Supply delivered a yard and a half of garden soil right on the morning we needed it, and the driver even helped point out where it would drain best given the slope of our lot. Filled the beds that same afternoon with the kids watching from the window, which they thought was the best part. By midsummer we had more zucchini than the families knew what to do with, and the soil never crusted over.”

- Enhanced with organic compost
On a sloped property in West Virginia, separate the planting area from any work used to catch hillside seepage or direct runoff. Garden Soil serves the garden bed itself, with enriched soil, organic compost, and natural amendments for vegetable gardens, blooming plantings, and ornamentals. It is not material for the drainage layer, a driveway base, or any surface expected to carry vehicles.
Roots benefit from a growing medium that has compost as part of the mix. The compost contributes nutrients, helps balance the way the soil handles moisture, and supports the earthworms, fungi, and bacteria involved in a living soil environment. When renewing a worn planting area, place Garden Soil across the bed surface to replenish what prior growing seasons have used. This is particularly useful where a hillside site has required careful separation between managed water and the soil reserved for plants.

Common Uses
Vegetable & Herb Gardens
Use garden soil in herb patches and vegetable rows for nutrients and drainage that support steady growth. Tomatoes, peppers, squash, and other hungry crops benefit through the season.
Raised Bed Filling
Use garden soil to fill raised beds and planters, giving plants a prepared place to grow right away. The blend combines the soil, compost, and amendments needed for planting instead of requiring each material to be mixed separately.
Flower Bed Preparation
Build new flower beds or freshen established plantings with garden soil. Its nutrients help annual flowers and perennials grow well and produce healthy blooms.
Renewing Garden Soil
Work 2-3 inches of fresh garden soil into worn planting areas to restore nutrients and improve the soil's condition. The new layer also brings beneficial organisms back into the bed.
Why Choose Garden Soil
Plant Nutrition Blend
Garden soil contains natural amendments along with organic compost to support plant growth with a full range of nutrients. At planting, this mix can make separate fertilizer unnecessary.
Improved Soil Structure
Garden soil's organic material holds water while allowing excess moisture to drain away. That moisture balance helps roots develop in structured planting soil.
Active Soil Life
Compost supports beneficial organisms in the soil. They turn nutrients into forms roots can use, helping plants through the growing season with less need for synthetic inputs.
Ready to Plant
Use garden soil as it arrives, with no further amendments required. Fill the bed, put in the crops, and grow in a prepared planting medium.
Frequently Asked Questions About Garden Soil
Customer Reviews
Demonstration beds sell themselves
Sell vegetable starts every spring out of a little greenhouse operation near West Union, and customers always ask what to fill their new raised beds with. Started stocking garden soil by the yard so folks don't have to drive to the city for it. Two yards filled my own demonstration beds out front, and the plants there are always the ones people point at first.

Kids watched the zucchini take over
Started a little garden program for the kids at our daycare in Elkins this year, three small raised beds where they could plant beans and pumpkins and actually watch something grow. West Virginia Rock Supply delivered a yard and a half of garden soil right on the morning we needed it, and the driver even helped point out where it would drain best given the slope of our lot.

By midsummer we had more zucchini than the families knew what to do with, and the soil never crusted over.

Darker soil, a few wood chips mixed in
Our community garden plot near Flatwoods needed richer soil than what was left after years of the same tired dirt being turned over. Ordered a yard and a half of garden soil for the new raised rows, and it's noticeably darker and looser than what we had. Only complaint is a few small wood chips mixed in that we had to pick out by hand.

Tomatoes already outgrowing the cages
My husband and I built four raised beds behind the house in Thomas this spring, our first real vegetable garden since we downsized. Garden soil filled all four beds with about two and a half yards, rich and dark right out of the bag, well, not a bag, the whole load. Tomatoes and beans are already outgrowing the cages we bought.
