Dover Foxcroft’s Climate and Your Mulch Job
Dover Foxcroft sees about 184 days a year below 32F. Deep frost keeps the ground closed for months, so this work waits for the thaw rather than the calendar. A stable base is important because freeze-thaw cycles can loosen a mulch layer.
About 89 inches of snow falls each year. Plowing can disturb a loose mulch surface. The ground around Dover Foxcroft takes water in very slowly, so most rain runs across the surface. That means drainage and a deeper base matter more here than elsewhere.
Around 46 inches of precipitation and about 89 wet days a year mean the mulch can stay saturated. Scheduling delivery onto firm ground helps avoid ruts.

How many tons of mulch do I need for my project?
