Campbell and Son Compost - Litchfield's Certified Landscapers

Our compost creates a healthier soil foundation. When you mix it into your garden beds before adding mulch, it helps your plants thrive, making them more competitive against weeds. Healthy soil also supports a better mulch layer that more effectively blocks weed seeds from germinating, reducing the need for chemical treatments common in our area.

Absolutely. A thin top-dressing of our screened compost in the spring is an excellent way to help your lawn recover. It introduces beneficial microbes and organic matter directly to the soil, which encourages deeper root growth and improves drainage. This helps repair damaged areas and builds a stronger, more resilient turf to face future Maine winters.

Think of our compost as a soil conditioner. We recommend mixing it into new garden beds or using it as a top-dressing around existing plants in the spring and fall. This continual addition of organic matter improves soil structure in our local conditions, boosts nutrient availability, and increases water retention, creating a foundation for a thriving, low-maintenance landscape.
