Here at the Dirt Guy, we consider loam and topsoil to be synonymous. Loam is a classification of soil based on its texture. It is hard to see the texture of the material, but it is a friable soil with a high organic content. It is excellent for your landscaping needs, such as top dressing for turfgrass establishment and for improving the planting soil for your tree, grass, and garden plantings.
Our screened loam has rocks removed that are larger than 5/8" and has passed through a harp-type screen to help fluff up the soil and prevent any naturally-occurring clumps. This makes it easier to rake out and spread.
Loam is an interchangeable term for topsoil, both and we consider loam to be synonymous to topsoil. both being well balanced soils that are excellent for growing plants.
We invite you to come to the yard and see the stockpile of screened loam that we produce to confirm that it will meet your needs.
