Believe it or not we are preparing a little something for fall at the farm. Not sure if a tractor ever hit 100,000 miles, but if one ever does it’s going to be him on that Ford!

Summer evenings at the farm. Just finished screening compost for Friday’s orders and now listening to the frogs at the front pond for a few minutes. Great way to end the busy day!

🌱Why Quick Pony Farms Screened Compost Makes an Excellent Garden Mulch 🌱

Many gardeners think of compost only as a soil amendment, but screened compost also makes one of the best mulches you can put around your plants!

🍉Helps retain moisture by reducing evaporation from the soil surface.

🍅Suppresses weeds by blocking out sunlight.

🍓Regulates soil temperature, keeping plant roots cooler during hot Texas summers.

🌶️Feeds your plants naturally as nutrients slowly move into the soil with each watering or rainfall.

🌻Improves soil structure over time, creating healthier, more productive garden beds.

Unlike wood mulch, screened compost doesn’t just sit on top of the soil—it actively improves it. Every season, your garden gets richer, darker, and more fertile.

Spread 3–4 inches around vegetables, flowers, shrubs, and trees for a beautiful, natural-looking mulch that works as hard as your plants do.

Happy Memorial Day everyone. Enjoy the day, but never forget the reason for this day. Thank you to all that have served for giving us the freedom to chase our dreams and enjoy the liberties we are blessed with. We decided today to celebrate with a Rangers game.

Just because manure is aged does not make it ready to use. The material in this pile is over two years old and it still has many pockets of raw material. Some areas of the pile are cooled, some areas are still cooking around 120 degrees plus. The rows made from this pile will quickly hit over 160 degrees. Over the next 10/12 months they will be watered, turned, and have other types of materials mixed in. All of that work will turn this into the beautiful rich Quick Pony Compost that all of our customers know and love!
