2021 - What I did today

After my walk this morning I went over the fields and collected some mole hills, then spread it out on a tin sheeting and went over it with one of those weed wands don't think it was warm enough to sterilise all the soil but will wait to see 8f there is any weed germination before using it, after that I went over my flower beds weed them and removed most of the old leaves on my helibore, and Can now see the flowers so much easier, then a friend asked me to cut back his roses for him, got that done and now having a coffee

Hi Spec

I've seen you mention the mole hills before.

Probably a stupid question but I assume it's legal to take the soil? If so there are 100's round here

Dont know if it's legal Danny, but the field I collect it from is a community field which I have a percentage of, its never used other than folk dumping their garden rubbish, so I collect it from there.
Though years ago it was common practice to collect mole hills, as the more molehills that were in a field the less grazing for cows, plus if farmers, growing for cutting, picked up molehills along with their harvesting, it contaminated their harvest
