Description

1B Pea Gravel is the smallest gradation of stone that we offer. As you might guess, each piece is about the size of a pea, ranging between 1/4″ and  1/2″ in diameter. It is round, sometimes spherical, in shape.

Pea Gravel is useful for a number of applications, such as:

• Bedding for stepping stones
• Fire pit areas
• Garden pathways
• Playgrounds
• Dog runs
• Other high-traffic areas
• French drains (where smaller stone is required)
• Pipe bedding

Unlike limestone, which is crushed to size and angular in shape, river gravel is naturally sized and rounded from many years of erosion. The original source for gravel was river dredging, which was outlawed due to its environmental effects. River gravel is now obtained from old river banks, which is a much more environmentally friendly method.

Note:  While all of our gravels are “washed”, there may still be a light residue left on the stones, which is left over from the mining, screening, and transportation. Once the gravel is spread, the first rain/hosing will remove the residue and expose the natural colors.
