Man I never even thought of the conditioning of the soil as one of the huge undertakings of building a homestead. Ash huh? Who knew? You will really have to have a lot of camp fires to burn 6000 pounds of ash and I wonder about what that does to the atmosphere.
I can't wait to see how it turns out and how your huge forest garden will look and produce this summer!
Solid work that brings you closer to your true purpose here I bet.
Yep there is a lot to it, it would seem.
Hehe yeah well my wood furnace burns ash faster than a campfire so it should not take all that long.. Honestly if I was paying for propane it would be worse for the environment depending on how its produced, or using electricity produced by coal factories so burning my own wood does not seem that bad to me.
Oh definitely. Being the steward of the land and helping the soil balance out with a byproduct of the heat is legit!
