Compost ($28.00/yard)
Silver Creek Materials offers one of the finest composts available. This compost is produced with a wide variety of high quality materials including beer, wine, liquor, soft drinks, sport drinks, waste wood and much more. Although the compost is rich in organic matter and nutrients, it remains necessary to maintain proper soil fertility through a regular fertilizing program. Our composting facility is the largest single-site composting facility in the state of Texas. We bring in tons of source-separated wood waste daily; grind it up into a smaller, screened material, then let nature take over for several months. We maintain the proper moisture for composting by spraying the compost piles with millions of gallons of out-of-date beverages, instead of using scarce water resources.
Premium Soil Mix ($20.00/yard)
Silver Creek Materials offers one of the finest soil mixes available. This soil is carefully blended to produce optimum plant growth. Our #1 selling premium soil mix consists of a screened blend of compost (60%) and the purest cushion sand available (40%) to add stability to the blend. This blend is best used in establishing new gardens, flowerbeds and leveling lawns. It also works well in establishing new lawns, spreading a four-inch layer before installing sod. Premium Soil Mix is a good substitute for topsoil and unlike most topsoils, it is 100% free of weed seeds. Our mixes are consistent year in and year out - you always know what you're going to get when you order Silver Creek Soils. Although the soil is rich in organic matter and nutrients, it remains necessary to maintain proper soil fertility through a regular fertilizing program.
Cedar Mulch ($32.50/yard)
Silver Creek Materials offers the finest bulk cedar mulch available. Most other cedar mulch is a result of land-clearing and is loaded with dirt and other unwanted materials. Not Silver Creek Cedar Mulch! These trees are plucked with roots and all; the dirt is shaken off, and then the whole tree is ground. The roots are loaded with evergreen oils that result in the most aromatic mulch possible. Mulching with Silver Creek Cedar Mulch is only necessary every two to three years due to the abundance of evergreen oil present in the mulch. Applying a 3-4 inch layer of this mulch around your plants will significantly reduce the need for watering and is the best organic weed control available.

Finely Shredded Native Tree Mulch ($18.00/yard)
