Duane,
I would remove those pine mulch pieces if possible. If you till them in, add some nitrogen, as decomposition process will leach the N out of your soil to break down the mulch. I would add something like alfalfa pellets or meal, and horticulturla corn meal which is supposed to help feed bacteria that eat several different fungi. If you do till it in and add N source, compost, and cornmeal, cover that with straw, alfalfa hay, or shredded leaves to overwinter. When you come back in the spring, you will be amazed at the soil improvement.
