The tree trimmers dumped this off after my grandson asked for it. It was a huge dump load.

Yes Maam, if you see the tree trimmers in your area they usually are looking for a place to dump the chips.

We have a sawmill just down the road from us and they sell mulch. I think the tree cutters in the area bring the wood chips to them.

What was so nice about this load was that there was an area of nothing but pine chips and needles, just right for my azaleas.

Thats nice to have all that free "gold"...lol

We had wood chips in our garden paths, but our bug guy said the wood held to many bugs and he said stones were a better path liner, when it is close to the house. the bugs can't live in the stones as well because they get hot. So we removed the chips and put in pea gravel, at least in the paths.
