I'm now wondering how to get brush/dead wood that is not good enough for the RocketMassHeater into the soil without an excavator?
Clay soil, a woman and a spade. Is it all muscle work or are there "work smart, not hard"-solutions?

Loppers or pruners. Cut to 1 foot lengths or shorter. They lay on the ground pretty good then. With soil contact they will rot.

I guess everyone has an angle. Fine, what do you want? Just know that you cannot have this tiny ad:
