Wow, that could hurt at BM time.

Find a corner and build a bin and let this material compost down. I take
it from Jan's post, your up in the colder areas. If true, chop up into
smaller pieces, build a big pile and let it be for a long time and it
will cold compost. May take up to a year but will be totally worth it.

How can I use this stuff?

The needles are falling from the redwoods, cedar, Grand Fir, Douglas Fi=
r and
Ponderosa Pine that grow in an island in my yard. The oak leaves are
starting to fall too. There is just too much to leave it all under the
trees. It will bury everything growing beneath! I'd like to leave some
under, but what can I do with the rest? We were blowing it all out and
tossing it, but that seems a waste of good material. I could mow it up =

the mulching blades and spread it around the other beds. Or should I st=

it all in a pile and compost it? Suggestions?
