Prepare the soil

Roll out the mulch, this picture is showing the EcoMulch

Cover the entire edge with soil to hold the mulch down and prevent winds from getting under the edges. Good to also pin down or use anything heavy like bricks, planks, etc..

Make holes and position your plants

This is a good picture of the paper but many growers apply extra weed free top soil to cover the surface of the paper, this helps with weighing it down more and is recommended. 1" - 4" depending on the project.
