With big saw dust pile always throw a small piece of wood into the pile before climbing on it, to make sure it is not on fire under it, the entire pile under the top dust can be on fire. And be aware some times a wet saw dust pile can catch on fire under it just from its own heat,from decomposing.

My grandfather raised blueberries and we went to the local sawmill for sawdust to ring around the bushes. It was great fertilize as it decomposed. That was 50 years ago and it’s still a good practice.

In my experience the best compost is made from a variety of materials, "green" and "brown" mixed together. Wood products tend to consume nitrogen from the soil as they break down, so it is best that wood materials be well aged to make good compost. I use the loader on my tractor to turn the piles of mixed material primarily oak leaves, pine needles, lawn clippings, and kitchen waste. It is not necessary to have fancy compost bins, the piles work well if they are turned once in a while. I enjoy your videos. Looks like spring is arriving in the south.

As a child growing up I was raised with both a dairy farm and a sawmill. The fastest way I ever saw to compost pine sawdust was to use it for bedding in the free stalls. As it became soiled we would pull it out on the barn floor and scrap it into the liquid manure pit. It is a great way to help add humus to a sandy soil. When used for a bedding in a calf barn pine sawdust does not break down very fast. Because of the lack of constant moisture. By adding hay straw and other materials like uneaten feed, that holds moisture better it broke down quickly. It will help if you stir your pile after a heavy rain this will trap the moisture inside the pile this will cause it to break down quicker. Great video.

We used to spread out a layer of sawdust, then spread a small coating of ag Lyme and fire pit/wood stove ash on it, and then would repeat. Every once in a while we would turn it with the bucket tractor. With in a couple of years it would the darkest most fertile dirt you could get. We had the space to run multiple piles so we could separate out hardwood from softwood. Softwood would break down quicker. Good video 👍

This was a great video Tyler and Brittney! It’s incredible the number of “Monday morning QB’s” who watch uTube videos. Why, because so many uTuber’s spend half of their videos explaining to novices the reasons for their methodology and process. It has to be frustrating but you both handle it graciously.

Could you slide a piece of plywood between the pile and mill to keep from pushing it under the mill,then use the bucket on your tractor to scoop it out? That would cut out a lot of scooping by hand.

build you a box the length of sawdust or as much as you can fit from post to post in your shop. make it where forks can go under. the side closet to the mill open. when your box gets full drive the forks under it and dump it all at one time
