Free: Well rotted horse manure for gardens (Tebay CA10) Based on a fine sawdust bedding, over a year old so well rotted, dark and peaty, excellent for improving soil fertility. Regular Freegler-gardeners have already been digging here as you can see, and we'll be dressing our own veg garden with it very soon, but we still have quite a chunk available. As the year goes on the stack will continue to dry out (sigh... if it EVER STOPS RAINING!) and then it won't be too heavy to bag and take away. Wear wellies anyway. Located at Greenholme, behind M6 Tebay northbound services. I can send you detailed directions, address & phone number when you enquire. 2026 details: The left hand end of the heap, nearest the gate, is the newest - only take from here if you're building hot beds. The right hand end furthest from the gate is over a year old and is well rotted for digging-in. Take whichever suits your plans! We have plastic bags available if you need them - they are sawdust bale bags cut in half. They are square-ended and small enough to fill and lift easily and sit OK in a trailer or car boot. Measure roughly 30cm by 45cm base and 50cm deep. I haven't got any bigger ones though. You'll need a spade because the peaty muck will crumble through the tines of a garden fork. (We can lend ... if we're here when you call.)
