A Word on Bulk Mulch

At this time, Marcucio Gardens does not have bulk mulch on hand. On May 19, 2007, we received a letter from the city of Derby. A neighbor wrote a letter to the town about noise from the tractors. Upon pulling of the file to respond to the complaint it was discovered that 9 years ago Marcucio Gardens did not get a permit to operate a nursery in an agricultural zone. We did not know that we needed such a permit. Now after 9 years in operation, the town says we are in violation of the zoning. Upon being informed of the violations we quickly made changes to fix the problems. These changes included dismantling of concrete bins that held the bulk in a neat and contained area. As of now we do not have any bulk of any kind on hand. We hope that after the July 17, meeting of planning and zoning in Derby, all will be resolved and we will know if we can get the bulk material back again. Thank you for all your support!
