We rarely recommend products because we are all about information here. We found one though that really is packed with composting information that blew my mind. I discovered things that I didn’t know. I contacted the author and we spoke at length about the information.
I was so impressed that I asked him if I could tell our community about it. He provided this link. I think you will like this. Click Here!

Crossslash asked:
I want to start a compost pile, one that’ll be ready by mid feb. I’d also like it to be fairly strong- so what breaks down quickly into organic nitrogen and carbon? If you’ve got some things, recommendations, or tips on making a good pile, please say so! Thanks!

I have a compost pile that I just recently found a bees nest dug inside the pile and I don’t want to use chemicals because it will ruin the compost. Any one have any suggestions?

The Cat thinks he’s GOD asked:
What are some ingredients I can add besides pine needles, bark and cones?
Coffe grounds, good Idea. There are only about 5 starbucks in all of Utah, but I know of one a few miles away.

Jennifer M asked:
We are getting ready to put together a compost pile. My question is whether you continuously add materials such as lawn clippings (spring and summer) and kitchen scaps to it, or is there a point where you let it sit and start a new pile? I don’t want 20 piles going at once, but if you keep adding, how is it ever ready?

Please elaborate the answer. I know the quality of “tea” will depend on quality of compost and water. I need a thumb rule.

christinascupboard asked:
My kids always leave uneaten cereal (oatmeal and grits) with a little bit of milk after breakfast. Is it okay to just throw this on the compost pile? I’ve heard that you shouldn’t put milk on it but have never received an explanation as to why.

Romaire asked:
It’s 28 degrees outside and the ground is frozen. I live in a close community (not much land between houses) so I have to be careful about odors. We also have lots of wildlife.
I’d like to start a compost but don’t know anything about it. Any ideas?
