Hey there!
Hopefully you remember the ongoing Shroomington Space Program I mentioned in my last picture. Since then the shroomy engineers have come a long way as they moved from an UFO on a stick to actual rockets. Well, they don't really fly yet, but at least they are compostable, if not sometimes even edible. :)

Have a nice weekend everyone!
It would take an organic farmer to post such a sign on his boundary fence; I wonder what grows beyond the native bush on the other side of that barbed wire.
We were surprised to look out to see these sweet ladies in our yard. One of them was very interested in our compost!
I feel terrible for wildlife lately because the air quality is horrendous due to the Canadian wildfires. For several days it’s been in the “unhealthy” and “very unhealthy” range, with a constant haze in the air. While we have the option of closing windows & filtering our air, they do not.
In your garden, pull up any dead plants and lay them on the ground around healthy plants. You can also chop them up and mix them into the soil.
While leaves changing color in the fall are dying, they are not dead. A cold snap will kill the leaves the same as it will on the leaves of most your other plants.
The green waste collected from households and commercial gardeners is wetted down and put into these massive rooms on one side of the building. It quickly starts to decompose and the temperature rises to around 60C.
All this heat causes steam to escape from the hanger doors.

This is what our compost looks like at the moment. It proves that the compost soil is excellent, and that the garden care is somewhat neglected :)

On its way to the compost bin...
Most of the strawberries were lovely - this one seems to be growing rather a lot of mould !!!!!

The Flickr Lounge-Made Of Wood
These are wood pallets we got from a local business to use for our compost bins. The Rhubarb is growing on the left side and a volunteer Delicata Squash is growing in front of the bin.
Four months ago I took this picture because I felt so captivated by the ordinary details I found in these pieces of peppers I had sliced that were to be discarded. Even though this would become compost material I really appreciated the colors, shapes, and light I saw here. I find “real” food/fresh produce so beautiful and interesting in appearance and love how I feel so thankful and excited when thinking about the nutrients and benefits fresh produce provides for our bodies. I’m thankful I took the time to capture what I saw.
The largest of the abandoned barges I photographed on this day. The wood timbers are so substantial that they partially turn to compost long before they totally disintegrate. Some of the barges have a thicket of shrubbery growing on top; this one had smaller plants on the side.
The original swimming pool is still intact on the grounds of the circa-1910 Cornish Estate near Cold Spring, N.Y. There had to have been a great view of the Hudson Highlands down the slope before all these trees sprouted.
Not the tidiest of gardens, it takes a lot of work keeping it this scruffy LOL.
We get a lot of wildlife though and the compost gets used up every year. Squizzy loves this bit as it is close to the trees and he/she can make his/her getaway. The snow has now gone from the back garden, not so with the front.

WEEK 15: APRIL 2008/2010 FLASHBACK – ENTROPY
We keep this little metal pail in our kitchen to throw out vegetable matter for compost.
I opened it today and thought, since the stuff hadn't decayed all that much, the variety of colors and textures were pretty cool. I thought it would make for an interesting photo for Entropy.
I've sunk to new lows in trying to get some pictures taken during the lock down. This is the contents of my backyard composter.
Sidewalk bin for compostibles outside a craft ice cream shop in Seattle's Wallingford neighborhood. (The ginger ice cream was very tasty.)
