Wouldn't you guys be worried that you'd be introducing pollutants into your garden? Taking it from the woods would mean it could be contaminated with anything like animal feces and urine, pests and other nasties.
All poop and pee is compostable I recon the microbes sort it all out for the better given a little time in the compost bin.

Leaf mold is another option for a peat replacement
It's illegal to take it from the woods and forests, so be careful if you're going down that path.
Fortunately I get asked to remove it from some of the properties I help maintain. But good to know

Yeah I'd say ya dont want stuff from a busy road but besides that you could always sterilise it if you wanted to be safe. The jadam crew use the stuff in everything
