Now that winter is over and I need to fill in bare spots from snow removal, I purchased some bags of top soil and grass seed to help heal my lawn in those spots. Today I found many other things besides dirt? I don’t mind the small rocks and wood pieces, but last year and also this year, I found quite a lot of garbage.
In 1 40lb bag today I found:
A half of a sharpie cap,
Various shredded pieces of plastic from what looks like Tupperware lids to very thin strips of what looks like plastic sheet.
Fishing line,
Some type of thin metal, almost looks like from A shredded pop can.
Very large rocks,
and other debris I couldn’t tell what they were, but did not look like dirt.
this is without really looking very hard either.
Last year, we purchased raised garden bed dirt as our daughter wanted to try a garden. I had to throw away several bags due to so much contamination, I couldn’t believe it was being sold for plants for consumption.
‘’I hate to think of the area these companies are getting their dirt if it’s loaded with this much garbage. I can only imagine what is in the dirt that I can’t see.
Has anyone else had these experiences? These have been several different companies that I have experienced this type of poor quality.
