OP Redcedar Member R Joined: Feb 2003 British Columbia	I'm planning on putting bark chips (not mulch) down on a small site that has been cleared of small trees and shrubs. I was wondering if I need to prepare the surface in any way besides levelling it. Should I roll it? put a layer of sand down first?

I think it is a good idea to do this or even use a landscape fabric, but it is not necessary. Good luck Barb barbsblooms@shaw.ca
