How much bark will i need

Deciding how much bark to use can seem like a perplexing task at first, but a little planning goes a long way. It all begins by measuring the area you wish to cover and determining the ideal depth for your project. Typically, bark is spread at a depth ranging from 50 to 100 millimetres, though this can vary depending on your vision. To calculate the volume required, multiply the area by the chosen depth. For example, if the space spans several square metres and a depth of 100 millimetres is desired, a simple multiplication will yield the cubic metres of bark needed. It is also worth bearing in mind that bark tends to settle over time, meaning that a slight surplus might be necessary to maintain the look you desire.

Moreover, purchasing a bit extra can help account for any unexpected variations during the project. With careful measurement and a modest allowance for settling, you will be well on your way to creating a garden that balances natural beauty with practical function.
