Is there something I can use these for around the garden? I like them but don’t know what to do other than brag to my 4 year old that my sticks are better

    You could surely use them to tie up a top heavy plant. But uh you know, nice sticks bro. I’m jealous.

    Maybe a nice macrame hanging? 

    or, uh, carve into some small woodwind instruments? lol 

    edit: ope, missed what sub I was in. They’re pretty straight, maybe they could work as part of a trellis, or poles for…. beans?

    Get one more. Make a tripod for beans or the climbers.

    I use branches like that to make trellis for a bunch of fruit or veggies

  5. Make an A-frame out of it, tie a string to the top with a weight at the bottom of the string. Put the frame on a surface you know is very flat (concrete floor or something) and mark where the string hangs on the horizontal part of the frame.

    You now have a tool to follow contour lines on your property. Great for planting, swales, roadbuilding etc.

    Straight wood like that, I would make walking sticks. You could even cut the smaller one and make one for your kid.

  7. Use it to hold a weak tree. “this is what you’ll become if you don’t shape up”

    I use sticks like this as trellises all the time. I chop a point on one end with a hatchet, or dig a post hole if it’s too tall to drive easily. I char the bottoms so they don’t rot out, and then I usually get a couple seasons out of them.

    Get a few more that aren’t so perfect and make a teepee in the backyard. The kids will love it

    I use good branches like these as stakes and making makeshift string trellises

  11. Use them to brace other plants climbing types etc

    They are solid sticks. I like them a lot!

    My dog says he’s willing to dig a hole in exchange for those very nice sticks that you have there. Just be aware, he never digs the holes where you want them.

    Think its called a witches fence or hedge fence made entirely out of sticks. Those ones would be good for the pillar supports. You weave the smaller sticks through them like a braid.
