    In plain sight.  They grow them petrified for sale the following year.

    It seems that there is a public fossicking area for petrified stuff just north west of the town. One has to have a fossiker's permit to participate.

    I'm leaving here today for other parts so I won't be seeking a permit.

    And now I'm at this thriving metropolis for a couple of nights.
