[QUOTE="kenny thomas, post: 692839, member: 8993"] Exactly what Jogeephus said. It comes from a paper mill and they use wood to power a boiler to produce power for the mill. One paper I read said that 80% of the ash in the northern US was used back on the farms but only 20% in the south. Some power plants use 100% wood also. Looks like a great deal. The paper mills are very glad to get rid of it because otherwise they have to pay a landfill cost. I contacted our extension agent(another story) about it and all he did was print off some info I had already read. He said it wasn't any good even though the studys showed it was. [/QUOTE]
