Materials for Moretown Projects

Decorative work leads here. Beds, borders, dry creek beds and ground cover around a home all call for round stone, and river rock is the material for it.

Use River Rock in beds and dry creek runs that carry roof and drive runoff. Where the bed is larger or the water moves harder, Large River Rock handles the heavier erosion work.

Pea stone, sold locally as pea stone rather than Natural Pea Gravel, suits walkways, dog runs and play areas. 3/8" Natural Pea Gravel gives you that rounded, walkable surface.

For paths that want a tighter, dust-binding finish underfoot, Walkway Gravel is the finer choice.

Under patios and flatwork, stone dust is the New England default. Stone Dust, also called screenings or crusher dust, beds pavers, bluestone and flagstone.

Beds and tree rings want mulch instead of stone, and Shredded Mulch holds moisture through a short growing season.

Driveways and drains still come down to staymat. It is the everyday Vermont yard word for a dense graded base running from about 3/4 inch or 1 inch down to dust.

Town road standards call for a crushed gravel surface course, and VTrans specifies dense graded crushed stone under 704.05.

Ground and Conditions in Moretown

Across the Green Mountains, the ground is thin, stony glacial till over schist and gneiss on the slopes, with boulders and ledge close to the surface. Sand and gravel outwash sits on the valley floors.

On a slope, that shallow soil is why an under-built base shows itself fast.

Rain and snowmelt run off steep, shallow soils quickly, so brooks rise fast and a drive on a grade sheds water down its own surface. Curtain drains, footing drains and dry wells call for clean washed stone such as Drain Rock or #57 Stone.

Both stay open and let water move.

Steep-gradient streams scour banks, ditches and culvert outlets in heavy rain. That is the pattern that did the worst damage in the mountain towns in the August 2011 flooding.

Lining a steep ditch or armouring a culvert inlet calls for Stone Fill, the Vermont word for riprap, graded by type.

The working season is short. Mud season arrives later and lasts longer up high, and the ground freezes again sooner.

Frost sits in the ground well into spring, so gravel drives and camp roads heave. Base and paver work squeezes into late spring through early fall.
