How to make natural charcoal at home?

Hi Sheila, here's an article that explains how to make biochar in a pit. https://www.motherearthnews.com/organic-gardening/making-biochar-improve-soil-zmaz09fmzraw

Hi Sheila, One method of making biochar: pile up woody debris in a shallow pit in a garden bed; burn the brush until the smoke thins; damp down the fire with a one-inch soil covering; let the brush smolder until it is charred; put the fire out. The leftover charcoal will improve soil by improving nutrient availability

Some towns and municipalities have bylaws against burning anything in your backyard. Check first with yours before you start.
