Yes, that's a huge tomato plant growing out of the doorway of my composter. And, yes, it's doing better than any other plant over in my proper garden. Well it should, with all that nutrient-rich compost around its root system! August 2011.

The compost begins with the base frame. Everything is PT wood and outdoor rated deck screws. It will be heavy but should last many, many years.

This is our compost tumbler which gets heated by the sun to breakdown kitchen waste faster. Our next project will be to build a large box compost bin to break down yard waste.

The leftover remains of the original compost heap. I think I'll build a raised bed here, since the soil will be so abundant with nutrients! (Oh yeah, and Bit posing nicely again).

A happy accident: some kidney beans gone bad were thrown in the compost and a little garden of sprouts arose from the muck.

I bought one of these bins when I used to live in Colorado and it worked very well. I left it there when I moved but I would definitely get one again next time I buy a compost bin.

Made what I call "compost salad" to add to the bin... Cleared out the fridge and fruit bowl of old produce.

One of my resolutions this year was to help my compost to decay faster and have scissors by my small kitchen bin. When I canned the pineapple, I IMMEDIATELY cut up the skins and leaves.

The girls harvested our peas and some of our cilantro and cut it up for the new compost bin.
