New subject: Free wood chips
We have a small mountain of wood chips from a large oak.
I will even deliver, as long as my back and my little truck hold out (I cannot guarantee
that this offer will last).
Gotta get rid of them. Holler if you can use some.

Hi Bill,
Hope that you are doing well this morning. I would be very much interesting in
the wood chips. I live at 2612 Buck Spring Ct., off of Horizon Hike in Trailwood
Hills housing area. Please call me for further communication. Thanks.

Bill,
I had a crazy week last week. I'm a graduate student and my committee
was on my tail. I'd like to come get some early Sunday if that suits
your schedule. I have a truck and a pitchfork.

Great! They're at the end of our driveway. I'll try to remember to park our
vehicles on the street. Come and get it.

Would love some wood chips for the back where nothing grows. It will be turned
into the White Lake (yard art city) of Oakwood. I have a truck and can come get
some. But I won't be free until about 7:30 PM tonight to get any. Thanks.

That will be great! We may not be at home, but just back down our driveway. You'll see
the mound. Please take all you can use, and them some.

New subject: thoughts on wood chips
It should be noted the fresh wood chips can decrease the nitrogen
available to plants, as the microorganisms in the soil take up nitrogen
to break down the fresh wood chips. I tend to use fresh wood chips in
paths or other places I don't want things to grow, or age the chips a
year or so before applying them to garden beds. I'm planning on digging
out some of the older material in my paths, putting that on the garden,
the putting these fresh chips in the paths (and in the chicken coop).
I've read some contrary information on line (for example:
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CBgQFjAA&am…
) but generally I see more pointing towards concern than to not.
Thoughts?

Oh, believe me we are! We've made so many pickles our fridge is full!
If anyone wants homemade pickles, drop off a few clean jars on our porch
with your name/address on them and we'll fill 'em up!

Hope there are some left.
Thanks,

We've been making dill pickles. They've gotten rave reviews from our
neighbors, so I think you'll love 'em. Kelly just started another batch
but we'll need more jars to make more.
Squash and cucumbers are in the green container on our porch swing. Stop
by anytime and take what you want! I've placed a few plastic bags
outside, too, for anyone needing something to carry them in.
Happy gardening!

New subject: Squash and cucumbers - gone!
Hi fellow gardeners!
The free veggies are now gone. Thanks to everyone who helped them find
new homes. I trust you'll be making some excellent meals with them!
Thanks also to those who took me up on the pickle offer. My lovely wife
Kelly has gently reminded me that I goofed on explaining the pickle jar
deal. I was supposed to ask for TWO pickle jars, only ONE of which would
be returned with pickles. My bad! :) We're in need of extra jars here,
you see.
Everyone who left jars will get their jars back with pickles. Note that
it takes a few days for the pickles to soak in the vinegar flavor.
I'd be curious to hear how you use the cucumbers and squash if you care
to share your favorite recipes!
Cheers

Please feel free to keep the 2nd jar, that 's why I included it.
I'm using the cucumbers for a marinated cuke/tomato/onion salad.
Extra cucumbers are also nice as a breadless sandwich. Slice in half longwise. Scoop out
the seeds. Fill with tuna salad, chicken salad, etc. Very refreshing.
Some of the yellow squash will be made in to a tex-mex sort of casserole to use up left
over cornbread:
steamed squash, Texas caviar, crumbled cornbread, tomatoes, perhaps some cheese
The larger squash will be halved, steamed and the inside scooped out. The scooped squash
will be mixed with sauteed onion & garlic, chopped tomato, some sort of left over
grain, feta cheese and perhaps basil or marjoram. Stuff the squash shells and bake until
hot and the cheese is melting. Broil a few moments to brown the top.
Appreciate the veggies. My garden is not very productive. I'm pretty sure there is an
"all you can eat buffet" sign by it visible only to deer.
