Clackamas Compost Products, LLC is located on the Southwest side of the industrial area in Clackamas on the South end of the Metro area.  Clackamas Compost provides a modest variety of landscape products and specializes in making and blending of Premium Garden Mulch, made out of clean green feedstock's from local homeowners, haulers and landscapers.  Clean wood and rubble are also accepted for recycling.
The compost feedstock's are sorted for woody materials and the succulent green grass and leaves are placed into loose windrows, and turned by excavator over 5 times in 5 months, temperatures soar above 145 degrees Fahrenheit and steam away the whole time.  After this, it is screened through a 1/2 inch screen and cured for a few months longer to make Premium Garden Mulch compost.
You can use Premium Garden Mulch to provide natural slow release nutrients, retain moisture in your soil, increase water infiltration, protect bulbs and roses from freezing, till into an existing soil for seeded or sod lawns, use for air or water biofilters, erosion control and stream protection, and for general garden & landscape mulching.
The compost is tested for quality regularly and meets the US Composting Council Seal of Testing Assurance quality requirements.  The most recent test results are available upon request.

Bark/Sand Blend
Provides a useful mix of Fine Dark Fir Bark and Sand that results in a free draining, low nutrient, and fine textured soil with a slightly acid pH to support native and alpine plants and hardy perennial herbs that like drier roots, and lower nutrients.

Use as a soil applying at depths of 6 inches or more to a pre-fractured sub-soil. After planting, cover landscape beds with a mulch to improve moisture retention. It also can be used to grow grass on as the structure and free draining characteristics are preferred by many grass types. Be sure to fertilize all plants according to directions when using this soil, as very little nutrient exists in it.

3-way Blended Soil
3-way Blended Soil is made of chicken manure, premium garden mulch, sandy loam, bark dust, and sand.

3-way Blended Soil is a perfect soil mixture to top off garden beds, make a bed for sod, fill in low spots, and it can be mixed in with garden mulch or sandy mulch to give them more nutrients. It also works as a straight soil for high performance needs like raised flower and vegetable beds or as an existing soil enhancer.
