    Revolting, the fact that this cypress mulch is made from the entire tree is disgusting, the level of greed from these corporations amazes me.

    It should be a felony to touch those trees.  Thank you for this video and for all your work.

    I hate pines and love cypresses, so you know what kind of mulch I'll be buying from now on. I've bought around 100 bags of cypress mulch in the last 2 years, so now I feel kind of sick to my stomach after finding out the truth about how cypress mulch is made. Luckily I have about 10 little baby cypresses that I'm growing as ornamental trees, which will help offset the destruction I unwittingly caused. I'm surprised that Lowe's and Home Depot still sell cypress mulch even after WalMart stopped.
