Garden Incinerator
In article ,
"FarmI" ask@itshall be given wrote: "David Hare-Scott" wrote in message "Ed" ex@directory wrote in message I already have a compost bin on my allotment but wonder if there is any need for a garden incinerator as well? I'm referring to those small galvanised metal bins with holes in them and a lid on top with a small chimney. No use that I know of. I find a use for our "incinerator". Posh word for something that is actually an old and quite rusty 44 gallon drum with the top and bottom cut out. It has a very rough 8 inch square hacked out on one side and shoved inwards so I can shove some kindling and a fire lighter inside to set it going and it has a series of slots hacked into it with a tomahawk all the way round the base. I use it to burn blackberry brash, fruit tree prunings, weeds I can't be bothered to lug to the trailer or can't fit into it and a variety of other things. It lives in the orchard which is about a quarter of an acre and serves as the chook's day yard. At this time of the year when it's perishing outside, there is nothing like a burn off of stuff. Burn cans are illegal throughout our county. Very annoying. I recommend the following constitutional ammendment: "A well regulated garden being necessary to the securing of a tidy yard, the right of the People to keep and use burn-cans shall not be infringed." -paghat the ratgirl -- visit my temperate gardening website: http://www.paghat.com visit my film reviews website: http://www.weirdwildrealm.com |
