What would you do with the grindings ?

if it is just wood chips without dirt mixed in then
that is worth to use as a top mulch for any perennial
garden.

i'm not sure how sticky the chips would be from
pine sap/tar so it may not work well as a pathway
material.

if it has a lot of dirt mixed in with it then
i would bury it around the garden in spots where it
could continue rotting and eventually turn into humus.
not too near existing plants because you don't want
to disturb the roots or their growth. once it has
been broken down more it can be mixed in with the
rest of the garden soil (after a few more years -
really depends upon soil moisture and fungi you have
in your area).
