any suggestions on how to mulch up cedar bark to resell  would a chipper work or something else  for not too much money just want to mulch up the  bark from the cedar logs i saw and bag it for resale.

Fivedogs,true bark mulch is just the bark ,removed by a debarker ,with very little actual wood fiber.it is put in piles and goes through "heats" that tend to kill harmfull insects and darken it.Today anouther story any wood waste is run through a tub grinder colored and sold for mulch.A chipper would give you wood chips you would need a tub grinder.If you have enough you could hire a grinder.True bark mulch was considered a waste product years ago their were mountains of it we used to pay 2.50 a yard delivered.Frank C.

Vermeer have horizontal grinder, which will do the trick for small and mid size operatin. As well it cost fraction of tub grinder. The model is HG200. It's exelent solution if you have loose material.
