: How have others dealt with their dust?

Hey Joe

Find someone that uses it and give it, or swap it for something..

You're smack dab in the middle of lumber country up there aren't you.? Would there be any mills in your area. They haul/ship theirs to plants for use in MDF / Particle and O.S.B. products. They make money off of this, albeit only a few cents a board-foot, so it wouldn't be of any gain to you, but they might let you dump yours with theirs.. ?

We are working on a Market down here in Fresno/San Juaquin Valley to use all our sawdust and pulp from the Paulownia we're starting.

There are also some Co-Generation Power Plants going up all over to burn it for power.. They pay you for the sawdust and scraps. Maybe there is one in your area..?

Might be worth looking into up there..
