Stacy, we are sorry to read about your disappointment with the Miracle-Gro Garden Soil All Purpose. We value your feedback and want to ensure you have the best possible experience with our products.<br /><br />While small pieces of bark and twigs are intentional components of our growing media, large pieces of wood or bark should not be present. Most of our soils are made of composted forest products and contain very little if any actual soil. Composted forest products provide high organic content and nutrients without the concern for soil compaction which often occurs with potting mixes composed primarily of actual topsoil. The coarser material allows for air to reach the roots of the plant which improves plant performance for years.<br /><br />Please contact our Consumer Services team at 888-295-6902 so that we can help troubleshoot and fill you in on our guarantee.
