Cambridge Bark & Loam

I built a 6′ x 8′ raised bed in little «yard» in front of our house to avoid using the terrible soil full of broken bricks, cigarette butts, et cetera. This business was the closest to my house and when I called they were willing to make a custom sandy soil mix for my drought tolerant perennial bed.
They said they could deliver but we were afraid that a dump truck would be too awkward on our narrow street. After renting a UHaul (and accidentally driving by the business a few times) we backed the pickup truck in and Anthony went to work dumping loam, compost and sand into the bed. We asked for 1 ½ cubic yards, but honestly he must have dumped at least 2 ½ yards in there! I’m sure small quantities are a difficult task for a bulldozer… We were only charged for the original quantity. They didn’t exactly mix the soil for us, so we had to do that when we got home whilst loading it into the raised bed.
Very amiable, low key family business. Anthony told me they cater to big or small orders alike, with people sometimes coming in just to fill a recycle bin full of soil. It felt great to support a local company rather than a chain.
