58.7% No, I enjoy it

LOGS free to a good home
We have these old logs that need to be removed from Waimarama Community Gardens in the Brook. Most not ALL are tanalised. The longest is 3 metres. Would be good for garden edging or firewood or whatever your imagination can think of.
Please message me if you can take them away - preferably asap.
