Thats awesome! I need to look into getting a situation like that set up around here, my township is too small to have a municipal leaf/woodchip type collective program. Wish I could convince the cattle farmers to give me their manure 😖

After growing up ranching, I'd bet if you knocked on a door and offered to shovel out their barn or "the lot", they'd be more than happy to let you. But unless they have a front end loader, you're gonna shovel. And need a way to haul it yourself.
We have access to a ton (literally) of horse shit and flake wood chips. But no way to haul it, so it's not likely we can get it without the expense of renting a truck and trailer. I *really* need to get my old diesel truck running after sitting idle for 10 years.
I should probably talk to them honestly. But they're spreading it out over 400 of their own acres so I don't know if they have any to spare :( i finally got a trailer for my truck so I can finally pick up more than one scoop of soil at a time.
