Stop in for a cup of coffee

Looks good, but taking up old mulch dont happen here. What do you do with it? I use ‘natural’ mulch ( wood chips, bark mulch...) and let it rot away. Top off as needed. If it gets too high I take away dirt from underneath.
Since we use the red kind it fades out so we just take it out every year...28 bags worth.. I just put the old in those lawn bags and the city picks it up....usually looks like this by summer
