Little Library. Services would include: Mulching plant beds: First application with natural cedar mulch (no dye) beginning May 1, 2019.

Depth of application shall be maintained at four inches. Weed control for plant beds: Pre-emergent April 15, 2019, using “Preen” for weed barrier control.

Planting Beds: Edging: Edging of all planting beds must be done manually with a garden spade to a depth of four-inches and all edge material removed and discarded properly off-site by the Landscaper.
