These gorgeous daffodils are surrounded by our garden mix topsoil. We offer a few bulk topsoil mixes, including a 3-way garden mix, a 50/50 garden mix, and a basic sandy loam topsoil. ⁣

Instead of hauling heavy bags from the big box stores, consider bringing your pickup truck out to King Creek Pit. It’s a beautiful drive, and you’ll get a lot more topsoil for your money.⁣
