Very encouraging to get this feedback @riverflows, as it was certainly not immediately obvious to me that content of this type would be of interest to your community. Now I know better! 😊

Interesting to “hear” your point about clearing the ROW for power lines, as I worked at an electric coop here prior to my retirement. It was a fascinating industry to be a part of at this particular time, given the tremendous changes underway to develop and employ the so-called “smart grid” …

Also a surprise to hear about the trees there. I assumed, given Geoff Lawson (and his mentor?) are Aussies, that wood chips are readily available. This whole new world is very humbling when all of the different types of plants are taken into account. And learning about all the “dos” and “don’ts” of it. I will be writing later on about what we are doing with vermiculture and the unhappy lesson we learned with just leaves in our back yard …

Thank you so much for stopping by and adding additional value to this post!
