I have learned how to build hot compost piles. This one is too hot actually. Above 130 degrees the pile loses nitrogen.

My lovely new compost bins!

this is a pile of compost we bought last year that we think caused problems in the greenhouse.

Hey Kristen! Nice Compost!

5 or so truckloads of yard waste. Mostly leaves and grass. Will be using this material in the multi tumblers as we get the green grass clippings in the summer.

Our two compost bins--not exactly beautiful but none of this nutritious stuff for plants goes to a landfill to be mixed with toxins.

This is the compost bin which is made out of old sections of yard fence. I cut them down and nailed them together. The front is held together with hook and eye hardware. Total cost was under 2 dollars, which I'm pleased about.

Description: Compost worms.

Evelyn has been digging up my compost and carrying it to her "garden" whenever the weather has been fine enough for a little digging. It was weird to have super muddy boots come tromping in the house in January . . .

The compost heap was jammed full. I was very pleased to find it yielded actual compost.

I'm choosing a scoop of compost with the least bit of uncomposted material for the compost tea.

Here is the story behind this compost sifter that I built a few weeks ago.

A 32-gallon trash can, buried a bit in the ground. I followed directions at www.stopwaste.org/home/index.asp?page=445 to build it. Hope it works!

Compost

Il ciuccio di fuoco è composto da una sagoma di asino in fil di ferro ricoperta di cartoncino colorato e ripiena di petardi che esploderanno fragorosamente. Dalla bocca del simulacro di asino, a lungo, scorrerà un fiume di fuoco rosso, gli organi sessuali dell'asino, particolarmente evidenti, scoppieranno fragorosamente per ultimi tra le espressioni festose del pubblico. Questo rito, evidentemente scaramantico e propiziatorio è abbastanza diffuso in area meridionale.

I can see a series beginning here...

Here are a variety of different worms that have moved into my outdoor worm pit in NE Florida. There appears to be about 3 different varieties (including Perionyx excavatus). Visit my website at Home Farming with Nature to learn about composting and growing a variety of foods at home

Note the tight-fitting lids to keep animals out of the compost. I will add bungee cords later on, if the lids are not enough.
