The best place in my yard to burn a bunch of yard depris is in the garden
area. Is this a good or bad idea? It hasn't been tilled yet this spring
and if it doesn't stop raining I 'm not sure it ever will be ) so any of
the char would be tilled into the soil.

I was reading about composting recently and the site recommended against
using fireplace ashes in the compost heap because it would do something bad
to the pH level of the resulting soil.

I'm sure it depends on how much you burn and how often (and how big your
garden is).
