I wasn't talking mulch but wood chips. Which are not necessarily free where you live. When I lived in DC, I had all I wanted; it cost to dump them. When I lived in Ohio, tree trimmers sold them to be recycled into that dyed mulch so they were not available. In Jacksonville, where it costs to dump them, it's possible to get them for free but I have yet to figure out how.
You really hate landscape cloth lol, just kidding. I might go by a local lumber yard that we have and see if they might want to give some of the chips away. I did see a sign last year that said free mulch there, it should be fine for inside a greenhouse.
