I can see a series beginning here...

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.

We are planning to put the compost bin in this area.

We got a new compost bin (won it at the Seward Co-op grand opening). The kids like to play in it. I'm sure they won't when there's actual compost in it.

pei is really progressive wrt waste management. The island runs 6 composting centres, then gives out the compost to residents for free once a year. All residential garbage is also sorted too.

A compost bin in the garden

Hugelkultur raised beds filled w/ rotten wood. This makes for raised beds loaded w/ organic material, nutrients, air pockets for the roots of what you plant, etc. As the years pass, the deep soil of your bed becomes incredibly rich & loaded w/ soil life. As the wood shrinks, it makes more tiny air pockets - so your hugelkultur becomes sort of self tilling. The first few years, the composting process will slightly warm your soil giving you a slightly longer growing season. The woody matter helps to keep nutrient excess from passing into the ground water - & then refeeding that to your garden plants later. Plus, by holding SO much water, hugelkultur could be part of a system for growing crops in the desert w/ no irrigation.

Cheap garbage can composter with holes drilled in the sides for aeration.

this is the load of aged mushroom substratel we are going to use as compost.

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

This is what the compost looks like when it's ready for the garden: dark, soil-like material with few worms in it, since the worms have moved on to the less fully composted materials above.

Having lots of trees in the yard gives me plenty of leaf litter to make compost. I add chicken manure I get from a friend, which speeds up the composting process. Within 3-4 months I get good quality compost.

Shawn Preputin and Larry Johnson, farmers, load mixed raw materials into a wheelbarrow to be wettened and used to create compost extract that is prepared in cooperation with 1 other Hill County farmer that is applied to their crop fields to bolster soil microbes and improve soil health.

This lil guy was hanging out on my compost bin last night. Surprised the heck outta me as it was dark and I went to open the bin and he was sitting on the handle, so I got myself a handful o' frog. Surprisingly, he didn't bolt into the bushes. He just brushed it off as a minor indignity.

I dug out my secondary bins to get some good black gold soil. What a surprise to see this cactus growing at the bottom-- I tossed in some pads about 2 years ago. That top part is all new growth.

 

With that kind of effort, I'm gonna plant them.

Este no es en absoluto el rincón mas glamoroso de mi casa pero sí uno de los que me dan mas orgullo. Hace mas de un año comencé a hacer compost en una esquinita de mi jardín y desde entonces mis residuos orgánicos son casi nulos (ya los reciclables lo eran) A través de fotos no pueden tal vez conocer esta parte de mi pero el medioambiente y el reciclaje es algo que me define hoy en día y podría decirse que con esta foto más que mostrarles mi casa me muestro a mi misma

I'm in a compost class. Yeah I actually get credits for it and everything. This is an experiment where we are comparing two different bulking agents, wood chips vs straw. Here we are using a manure spreader to mix up the compost in an enclosed bin

The first compost of the season.

A couple more shots from the compost bin springtail farm, got a bit closer this time. Not too keen on having my nose that close to the compost, but everything has a down-side I guess!
