Product Details

GardenStraw Mini is the cleanest, most effective straw mulch on the market. Straw is a fantastic mulch for your garden for a variety of reasons:

  • Organic material that breaks down over time, building your soil
  • Light color reflects more light and heat away from soil surface
  • Adds a boost of nitrogen and carbon to soil season after season as layers break down
  • Natural, aesthetically pleasing look to garden beds, containers, and pots

However, sourcing quality straw is the biggest impediment to home gardeners looking to get the benefits of straw mulch.

GardenStraw Mini is a compact, 0.5 cu. ft. bag of pre-cleaned and pre-shredded wheat straw straight from the prairies of Canada. In contrast to many locally-sourced straws, GardenStraw Mini is:

  • Clean - The all-natural cleaning process leaves the straw virtually wheat seed and dust-free, filtered for any impurities.
  • Consistent - Pre-shredded and split, it's a consistent texture and length for easy application
  • Convenient - One bag of GardenStraw Mini covers 20 sq. ft. at a 2-3" depth

Note: Due to the nature of the sustainably sourced wheat plant, not all wheat seeds are removed by the farmer from the straw during harvest. Even with HealthiStraw’s thorough and natural process, occasional wheat seeds may sneak through and sprout in your garden. Unlike grass and weeds, once the wheat seedling is removed it won’t regrow and you will continue to experience the lasting full benefits of straw mulch – water conservation, weed control and soil health.

    I’m growing in a 4x10 community plot. My first year had to clean it up. Started my no dig with cardboard, compost and soil. Started in June, knee replacement surgery in May. But so excited and overjoyed to be growing. It was a learning process, next year will be better. I’m in northeast Ohio, 6b-6a. I planted willynilly, it turned out okay in spite of my mistakes. Plenty of tomatoes, lettuce, chard and kale. Cabbage was a flop, my fault, I planted them behind the tomatoes, no sun. 😝 But thank you!!

    Because you taught me so much!!

    I love this straw! Not only does it keep the soil moist longer, it looks good to! I like how it makes my planters look finished. It holds back weeds, I have virtually no weeding. There is an occasional weed that springs up, but they are easy to see against the light color of the straw.

    I highly recommend this product.

    The Gardenstraw mulch is absolutely indispensable in my garden! I'm in central Texas, zone 9a, and it's hotter than Hades here for a majority of the year. I used to get bales of hay or straw from feed stores, but they were always either really big and hard to store, or the hay/straw itself was long and difficult to get in place around plants. The Gardenstraw is the perfect size and texture for my vegetable garden, and it doesn't pack together, thereby allowing water to get to the soil and down to the roots. I never want to be without it!

    Digging how the grow bags look like with the garden straw. I like that it retains water on the bags so I don’t have to water as often. I like that the straw will feed the soils as well.

    My garlic bed turned into a wheat bed after using the straw. Never happened before but now I probably won’t purchase straw from you anymore.
