Was talking to some bus drivers yesterday afternoon about gardening and one lady says she has just what I needed for my gardens, so I ask, she has 6 horses and said she has a pile bigger than a shed of poo-poo that I can come get all I want for FREE, and she only lives like 3 miles from my house, so I smell a pile of poo in my near future...

You Lucky Dog You!!!! If it is that large of a pile, it ought to "cooked" to perfection in the bottom/middle!

Great score, but I have a question? When you first put it in your garden do you want to till it all in at first or just let it sit on top of the garden?

Inasmuch as it's probably been sitting around for awhile, it can be tilled in as soon as it is spread. For that matter, it could also be tilled in much sooner than other barnyard manures due to the low initial salt content. If pure manure, one gallon per 10 square feet is sufficient NPK for most vegetables. Add more according to ratio of manure to bedding.

Ahhhh! The things that excite us gardeners!
I got 1,200 lbs of chicken litter a few weeks ago. I was happy. But mine has to age.
