With separator for urine. Personally I DO NOT recommend these. As they have discovered people end up putting saw dust down in the urinal bit and kids poo in it. This has leed them to go around adding sawdust themselves, A LOT more work.

The wind and the cold rain
have stripped the leaves
from our yellow flowering
Witch Hazel, which
is mostly sticks now.
These machines are used to bag the finished compost, which is marketed as LeafGro. The bags are between 40 and 60 pounds, depending on the size needed by customers.
We use a compost pile, with tubes running through it, to collect heat and we pump it through our propagation beds in our greenhouse.
The composter came from Staten Island, and I think it was just $20. It took about 20 minutes to put it together.
This will be our first time composting without worms.
Bwahahaa...I didn't realize until just now, that when I took this pic of my work area, my old lab was back there working on a little compost pile of his own.
The three bin composting system provides a space to store browns (carbon rich materials) and greens (nitrogen rich materials) - as well as a place to mix them (compost). This composting system is located at the Lincoln County Master Gardener demonstration garden, on the Lincoln City Campus of Oregon Coast Community College.
These plastic composters, sometimes called 'Darth Vaders' due to their resemblance to helmet of the infamous 'Star Wars' character, are a low cost way to compost garden and kitchen waste. Their dark color helps to heat the compost. The covered lid keeps the compost from getting rain-soaked. However, some compost aficionados don't care for these bins, claiming that they don't allow for adequate intake of oxygen.
2 years later, we have fresh compost/soil for the garden.

Sunday afternoon's outside project was setting up this new, third compost bin. I picked up two palettes form THAT Brewery and repaired a third one that was half buried in junk.
The barrel is from a local hospital (don't worry - no biohazard materials) and the frame is the roll bar from a Jeep CJ7. The steel bar going through the center is from our closets. When we moved in the previous owners had used steel pipe for the hang bars in all the closets. We saved them all when we updated the closets... 9 years later we pulled one out for a compost bin. Who would have thought?!
