Abstract: A broadcast spreader includes a perforated, dished spinner defining a concave upper surface which is particularly adapted to spreading pelletized mulch. The shaft upon which the spinner is mounted is jointed to permit sections of the shaft to be disconnected, and the spinner replaced with a conventional spinner to enable spreading of fertilizer and seeds, etc., or with a mulch spreader of a different size to accommodate different types of mulch.
