Next to my house is a large park and a BIG piece of property owned by the DOT. The DOT property WAS very overgrown (there was a homeless camp in there for a while). They have recently gone in and cleared the property. Always on the lookout for more wood I found several palms that were uprooted and set to be mulched. I found these two in the pile of about 30. The root ball was at least 5' tall (on its side) - I estimate it weighed over 500lbs. Anyone with a 4WD and 10 strong buddies is welcome to pick them up. The pile behind the palms was 20' high and was only one of 10 such piles. Most of the wood that was cleared was the invasive Brazilian Pepper.
