got on the road about 10:00 this am to heatherdown to load and haul 4 loads of peatmoss for the brotherinlaws and our selves. first pic is on the road on the way to the pit.
next pic is at the pit loading the first load going to lake isle about m30 miles west,
full load of raw peatmoss just as it comes out of the ground, this has been stockpiled at this pit for about 3 years now.
back for the next load, the next 2 going to onoway about 10 miles north of the pit.
the last load to home and some close up pics of the peat moss.
these last 2 pics you can see all the organic matter in the peat moss old rotted trees, plants, the last pic is the money shot, this is what the commercial guys are looking for, they screen it, run it through a type of mill to pulverize all the larger pieces, then it go's through big heated blowers to dry and fluff it up next it's bagged and shipped to a store near you. all the material you see will end up in the bag
about 2 or 3' into the pile I ran into frozen chunks some quite large but easy to break up with the tooth bucket, mixed with sand and black dirt makes for excellent garden material.

I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
