Is the ash from a wood-burning fireplace good for anything in the garden?
or the compost heap?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Exceptionally valuable. These are the minerals that the trees'
needed for growth and needs to be replaced in the soil. The burning lost
nothing of value to future plants. Use the ash as a valuable fertiliser.
Keep it dry to make spreading easy, or sprinkle on the compost.
