Lots of this had rotten out so replaced that with some pallets.
About 50 of the olive trees were pruned, and this is that. Blade snapped on the bandsaw else it’d be brimming.
Still enough for a couple of winters though.

Pallets are free.
Plus this place is trying to be organic so doesn’t use any chemicals for the general day farm life.
No fertilisers, pesticides or owt like that.
Doubt they’ll start painting pallets with nasty chemicals when they’re so readily available and easily replaceable.
Aha, that context makes a lot of sense now.
Pallets are usually stuffed full of chemicals so the presence of the pallets in and of themselves likely negates that desire
These are heat treated pallets.
Then it looks like a perfectly permanent temporary fix
It’s great because when it needs to be replaced - free kindling!
It looks like you’re in a fairly dry area … could the pallets be filled with dirt and done up in almost an adobe style?
Drive some posts through that and put a metal roof on it and baby you got a stew going
A lot are heat treated instead, and marked with HT, due to an international standard ISPM-15
