Uses for eucalyptus - woodchips, natural building, bio char

Do you have Eucalyptus and want to remove it? Then make the most of all the parts. Here is a video showing you how we use it for natural building techniques such as cordwood, wattle n daub and roofing. It also shows how we make biochar and woodchips.

Coming soon! thank you :-)

I'm not a gardener or farmer but now I know charcoal holds on to nitrate and fix carbon in the soil. Such great information about sustainability

[@keelapermaculturefarm]

Thank you :)

Good job 👌

thanks :-)

Can you use fresh cut wood for building as cordwood?or how long does it need to dry?

[@keelapermaculturefarm]

Best to let it dry for 2 years for best results

[@winghavenfloralfarm637]

The act of burning releases carbon into the aymosphere does it not? So creating biochar is probably a carbon neutral process or may release more than it fixes... Am i wrong here?

[@keelapermaculturefarm]

Then what do we do with the eucalyptus trees we have to remove from the land for reforestation to native trees? If we compost them, then all the carbon is released to the atmospheres

[@ivans3806]

Re charcoal: according to channels like Cody's Lab, and Primitive Technology - charcoal is formed when wood burns without oxygen, so a big pile of wood is covered with clay, fired up at the top, and then sealed to burn through without fresh air.

[@keelapermaculturefarm]

That is indeed the best way to make it, you are right!

Eucalyptus is very precious and has many health benefits especially fighting diseases and viruses like Carona, Malaria, .. etc. and many other cures The world is suffering from climate change and temperatures are getting higher and we need all the trees to safe our planet and not kill them, especially in a hot countries 😡

[@keelapermaculturefarm]

Eucalyptus is destroying our eco system and causing wild fires. We are reforestation it with native species
