Healthy, vibrant landscapes start with quality soil. At The Dirt Bag, we provide four essential products for all your landscaping and gardening needs: Premium Garden Soil, Garden Soil Plus, Organic Mountain Compost, and Screened Topsoil. Each product has a specific purpose to help your plants thrive, whether you’re building new garden beds, top-dressing existing gardens, or leveling a yard for sod.
Our amended soils, Premium Garden Soil and Garden Soil Plus, are plant-ready and nutrient-rich, making them ideal for flower beds, raised garden boxes, and vegetable gardens.
Plant-Ready: No additional nutrients are needed—everything your plants require is already mixed in.
Rich, Dark Color: Deep, dark soils enhance the beauty of your gardens and make plants stand out.
Perfect for Planting: Both soils are formulated to support healthy root growth and vibrant foliage.
Applications: Flower beds, raised beds, container gardens, vegetable gardens, or anywhere you want plants to flourish.
These soils are ideal when you want an easy, high-quality solution that gives your plants the nutrients and environment they need without additional amendments.
Organic Mountain Compost
Organic Mountain Compost is a pure, nutrient-dense compost designed to enrich existing soil:
No Soil Added: Compost is straight nutrients; planting directly into it may burn plants.
Top Dressing: Perfect for spreading over garden beds after planting to provide slow-release nutrients.
Soil Amendment: Mix or till into old gardens to rejuvenate soil without risk of burning plants.
Lawns: Use as a topdressing to feed grass roots and improve overall lawn health.
Deep Dark Color: Adds a rich, visually appealing color to gardens and lawns.
Compost is best used in combination with existing soil, either as a top dressing or to amend older beds and lawns
Screened Topsoil
Screened Topsoil is ideal for large-scale landscaping and yard preparation projects:
Native Soil: Straight from the ground, screened to remove rocks, twigs, and debris.
Yard Preparation: Perfect for leveling for sod or seed, filling holes, or building retaining walls.
Unamended: This soil contains no nutrients, so it’s not intended for planting flowers or vegetables.
Screened topsoil is the foundation for establishing new lawns or grading yards, ensuring a smooth and consistent surface.
Choosing the Right Soil or Compost
Understanding the differences between these four products will help you select the right material for your project:
At The Dirt Bag in Salt Lake County, Screened Topsoil is the only soil we sell without amendments. It is plain, natural soil that has been screened to remove rocks and debris, with no compost or nutrient blends added. Because of this, it’s best for leveling yards, filling holes, grading areas, and prepping for sod or seed. For planting flowers or vegetables, most homeowners mix in compost or choose a plant-ready garden soil blend instead.
Our Organic Mountain Compost contains no soil. It is 100% nutrient-rich compost. It’s best for amending garden beds, enriching vegetable gardens, and top dressing lawns. Because it is very concentrated, it can get hot and burn roots if planted into directly. Instead, it should be mixed into existing soil to improve nutrient content and soil structure.
Garden Soil Plus from The Dirt Bag is fully plant-ready and does not require additional amendments. It contains blended compost and mulch, making this landscaping soil best for raised beds, vegetable gardens, and landscape beds.
Our Premium Garden Soil is the darkest and richest blend we offer at The Dirt Bag. It includes loam soil, black peat, steer manure, compost, and amendments — fully ready for planting. It’s a top choice for homeowners in Salt Lake County looking for high-quality garden soil for new beds and garden projects.
