30 minute workout

Sid and I built our first compost pile this evening. I made one over the weekend by myself, but Sid needed to learn how to do build them. We had lots of dried leaves from the fall and plenty of vetch, oats and various weeds to complete a 3'x3'x3' pile. It should heat up fast and give us compost in a couple of months. We will probably build 2 or 3 more later this week or over the weekend. It took us about 30 mins and it was a good workout.


Some of the fodder for the compost pile. CA poppies, flowering radishes and cereal rye.
