Where in Wisconsin is the hersey plant. I'm in the Chicago area and drive up to racine, kenosha area from time to time. I'd definitely hit the plant if the mulch was cheap. Down here it is around $6 a bag.

They are in Burlington, WI just west of Kenosha.
I called them and they don't sell cocoa bean mulch. As I recall, I had to buy it at a retail store/big box type store. It was worth having as a cover mulch.
WARNING:
The day we spread it out the hubby and I had to go to the store for brownies and we ate them, drank hot cocoa and sat in the grass enjoying all that heavenly aroma!
