have so far moved 12 cubic metres of the stuff and theres still more.
Its my own fault !
I can sympathize. Im a big fan of woodchip, I've used it every year on my garden, my lottie and other gardens that I maintain, for the last 10 years.
Last year I asked the local tree surgeon for a 'lorry load' and got over 8 cubic meters. I took me nearly four months to distribute it all.
Its my own fault. !
(never had any problems with the occasional mushroom. I just hoe 'em off and they dont come back. The micro-rhizomes that form (the white stuff that grow on/over the chips) are very beneficial for plant growth.)
