From near the end of the article: "Sometimes people find it a bit gross when we put the mulch back in plant pots, because it smells a bit woody"

Are people really so detached from nature these days that the smell of wet wood puts them off? I do despair for humankind some days when I read this sort of thing.

seriously, who are these people who are grossed out by the smell of mulch? Did they grow up in a laboratory?
