Not in T-town but rather St. Clair county there is Captain Compost that sells bulk loads.Supposedly good stuff.

You can get leaf compost for free from the city compost pile next to the Botanical Garden. You have to pick out some trash and it tends to be semi-finished, but "free" is hard to beat. There's a loader 1st and 3rd Saturdays in the summer, starting May 4th this year, I think.

I used Gem Dirt this year for the first time. Their garden mix (40% topsoil, 40% mushroom compost, 10% leaf compost and 10% manure) looks pretty good, and is cheaper than some of the other places around town. The last few years I've gone to Ken Davis Co. on 46th just east of Mingo. The 50/50 mix of mushroom compost and topsoil is excellent, but it's $45 per cubic yard, while Gem Dirt's garden mix is only $25. I'd like to find a place to buy straw in bulk as well. I paid $6 a bail last halloween. The only other place I know that even sells it is Atwoods, I think they have it for $6.95 a bail. I'm always watching Craig's list, but I never see straw, just grass hay that I'm afraid will bring bermuda into my garden. Bryan

I just got 10 yards of nicely composted horse manure from Dan 920-366-0644. He dumped it right in front of my garden gate and I took it from there. He said he has over 400 yards left so to spread the word if anyone else needs it. The price was reasonable. He delivers to Green Bay, Suamico, Appleton etc. and charges by the mile for delivery. I am hoping my garden will do much better next year.
