Default Woodturning shavings. Uses?

I turned some bowls this weekend and ended up with a large trash can
full of shavings.

Can they be used as mulch for gardening? Are there any other
recommendations for the use of the shavings.

I have neighbors who are SERIOUS gardeners. They take all of the shavings that I can give them, using them for path cover in their terraced garden. They told me that the green wood shavings were too "raw" to use as mulch but are great stuff for keeping weeds out of walkways
