If you want to sell them to a lumber yard to use make sure they are not cut
shorter than 7 feet for processing.

After living with quite a number of large B.W. trees in my 1 1/2 year old
new home, I have decided several need to be removed. They are just too
darn messy, and I'm having some trouble with plants within their
driplines.

Since all are fully leafed out now, and already dropping nuts, I envision
a pretty huge pile of grindings when the tree guys come.

If I decide to leave all these grindings on my property somewhere, to
compost into future usable soil enrichment, will these composted grindings
be toxic to other plantS, or are the walnut toxins only produced while the
trees are alive?

Also, I will have a bunch of logs, some maybe over 2' diameter. Would
these be of any value other than making several winter's worth of
firewood?
