What is this?

What is this wood stand? I found it in a neighbors free pile. I think its for gardening/yard stuff, but my mom didn't recognize it after a lifetime of gardening.

Best answer: I built something similar as a wood rick, so I could store a few split logs close to hand.

Looks like it had pots on it, maybe it also had a trellis for climbing plants?

Best answer: I've also built very similar out of a pallet, to stack split wood on for use in bonfires

Best answer: Looks to me like someone built this to stack wood and keep it from tumbling to the side.

The dimensions look reasonable for holding a couple golf bags.

Response by poster: It's about 4 ft wide, so a half cord. Makes sense we lived in Southern California so not a lot of backyard fires. In Seattle now, makes sense this would be put out by a neighbor.

Thanks all!
