Beware of Walmart’s Cypress Mulch!

Beware of Walmart’s Cypress Mulch! Did you know that Walmart employs loggers to cut down the Cypress trees in the swamps of Louisiana and then places a florida address on the package, saying it is enviromentally friendly? I know for me that I had bought some from there and Lowes not knowing where it came from. Last year though I used the mulch from the city that my neighbor dumped from his truck on my garden plots. He got a truckload for only $7 and its all from the trees the city cuts down and uses themselves here in Fort Wayne. So, thats what I will be using. But heres a link so you can read about it yourself: http://www.loe.org/shows/segments.html?programID=09-P13-00030&segmentID=3
