Hey All,
I'm wondering if anyone has an opinion on using forest fire wood for hugelkultur beds. I figure with all the forest fires in the west it might be a great way to obtain some land cheaply and rehabilitate it with materials already in a state of decay. I know how quickly and robustly vegetation grows back after a wildfire, would this land also make for good gardening, or does the burning process make the soil composition unfavorable for edible foods?
I'm very new the permaculture thing, but I'm trying to do as much research as I can, but I haven't found much information on this topic. Any help would be appreciated?
