Hey Ladies!
Just looking for advice/ideas for a backyard groundcover. We currently have boring, wet, muddy grass. Thanks to the fall/spring rain and constant running and playing on it, it is less than ideal for playing on.
my first idea was covering everything in landscape fabric and then 2 inches of cedar chips.
My husband thinks cedar chips will be really slippery to run on.
Our backyard is very small btw!
Most of it is taken over by our fenced-in low deck. (3 feet off ground). The grass covered space is about 40 feet by 10 feet.
Any other ideas for a cushy, soft and mow-proof solution for kids to play on?
Thx all :)
