19th Century Factory Provides Our Homestead With WOODCHIPS! 📷 [2 Videos inside]

Great video! It is cool to see that you are getting the wood chips straight from the source (local and you are utilizing a by-product). I have to buy mine by the bale from the farm store since I don't have a direct source like that. It looks like there was some moisture on the wood chips. Do they start composting where you have them stacked in the shed? Or do they dry out by the time you start using them? Or is it not even a concern?

As long as you keep them dry, they won't compost very fast if at all. But once you put them in the open and let the rain and snow fall on them, 3-4 inches will break down over 1 year and provide amazingly healthy black dirt underneath.
