Up Close, snapshot taken in July
Now, look at it. It's beautiful.
The pile still needs time to completely break-down. When I mix it, I can still see a few peels, from the most recent kitchen purge. Each week, I walk out with my kitchen waste and dump it, turn it, and water it. A chore, but it's nice to see that it's actually paying off.
In hopes that it will be ready for spring, I've decided not to add anymore waste or clippings to it. I will continue to water and turn it each week. I want to continue to compost, so I started a new pile to the left. This new side will be my new garbage disposal.
I've added countless, banana peels, apple peels, orange peels, coffee filters, and a whole lot of other stuff. Hey, did you know you can add the lint from your dryer to a compost pile? Yeah.
