Fly tipped wood chip

I discovered this pile of fly tipped wood chip next to the car park of one of our local parks recently. As usual, my mind turned to how someone else's waste illegally and selfishly dumped on the local environment could be turned into a resource. I came up with a bright idea.

We bagged up about 15 sacks of wood chip and shipped it down to the small holding.

We have a problem there with patches of damp ground in which the land rover wheels has caused deep gullies

The wood chip was perfect for filling in the gullies. We haven't yet driven over it. That experiment is on the to-do list.
