if they're green wood, and recently cut, you might find some stuff
there for turning.

I don't have a lathe, but it looks like making bowls is fun:

I didn't know you could use green wood that way.
You don't need a lathe for making bowls. Just gouge them out freeform.
I use a sculptor's adze (bowlmaker's adze would be better), scorp, and
woodcarver's tools. You could also cheat and use a Lancelot tool and a
router for a lot of it.
My way is time-consuming, but fun, especially in green wood.
