I’ve cleared an area, about 1/5 acre, which has about 20 native trees. The site is elevated and windy. I would like to mulch the entire area and have the followings questions:- Do I need to use a landscape fabric under the mulch?- How deep should the layer be?- Would you recommend bark mulch or wood chip mulch?
