Should Colored Mulch Be Used On Garden Beds

Question From: Southfield, Michigan, United States
Q: Will coloured mulch, meaning dyed, be ok to use on garden beds.

A: I would not use it. It's made of ground pallets, old dried wood that came from who knows where? I use shredded leaves in my veg garden. Good news is it's almost collection time and the price is right - free. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy
