Swap 4 Trees for soil …
I come from a rural village in Germany, and for us any tree not bearing fruit is good for the forest, but useless in the garden. So when we moved here 3 years ago friends brought what I thought were fruit trees and so I planted them - except I don't think they are fruit trees. So they have to go. If anyone wants them you are welcome to them in exchange for top soil or compost to fill the hole (a 40 liter bag per tree should do). Pickup in Green Bay opposite Green Bay High School.
