There is great wisdom is being bluer.
For those of you who do not know what “BLUER” means, it is an acronym created by @bluerthangreen which means “Building Legacies Utilizing Earth’s Resources.” You can delve into his understanding more in these posts:
As I continue to work my land and prepare an area for a driveway and house site, a lot of raw materials need to be removed. Far too often these valuable resources are just piled up and burned to get rid of them, but @papa-pepper has a better plan. I'd rather use what I've got! In the last video I shared about the bulk of the trees in the form of logs, so now I move on to the branches.
PART TWO - BRANCHES

Stay tuned as I share more about this mindset and project over the remaining two parts of this series.
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

Until next time…
Don’t waste your time online, invest it with steemit.com
I think you really have taken the idea of stewardship that The Lord gave you and are applying in a way that will bless many generations to come. Keep it up!

As an Eagle Scout I think of that motto all the time @everittdmickey. It can apply to so many situations in life. It's a simple thing that feels so good, too leave a trail of improvement in your wake rather than destruction.

I'm a "city-slicker" in Tampa but I love what you're doing! I used to compost, and I've planted tomatoes, aloes, and some squash once. You could just as easily call yourself "papa-PREPPER!"
Have a great day! Keep doing what you do.

Mulch is a good thing. When I saw the title I thought you were going to make a natural fence by putting in wood post and weaving the branches between them. But mulch makes more sense. It is important top build up your soil to give it the nutrients needed to grow your food. And you don't want poison ivy around your little peppers.

Thanks for sharing. Great idea using natural resources for mulch and compost. No chemicals and better for everything it's used on and around. Keep up the great work. Can't wait to see more of your progress for your homesite. And great video, glad you were able to get a wood chipper to help with your driveway and homesite.

I like the steem powered wood chipper. Every homestead could use one. The Cicada noise in the background keeps it real. The mulch is an added bonus to cutting the trees. Fire wood and mulch!

I just cleared out some branches from behind my place today. It would have been great to have that steem powered mulcher!
Since I didn't, I just did my best to cut them up into manageable pieces. I then spread them across the forest floor to work as natural mulch for the forest bed.
