This brush pile has been here for more than 12 years. Over time it has deteriorated so imagine how big it was at the beginning. I decided to break it down piece by piece and utilize it for building up my berm to control runoff of water and soil. One bonus was all the fertile soil created during the decomposition stage. I probably got 25 wheelbarrows loaded with great soil. If I would have burned or shredded it, I wouldn't have been able to use it to its full potential.
This is what was created underneath the brush pile. Just look at all that rich soil–25 wheelbarrows full!
I added the bigger twigs and branches to the existing berm.
Good bye, brush pile!
