RE: "Back to Eden" Gardening: Adventures in Composting - Hot & Cold!
That sounds very interesting @wwwiebe. We watched all these YouTubes and read a lot of posts about free this and free that ... Not around here!
If your city is doing that with all their organic refuse, at least they are allowing the natural decomposition to take place, rather than just throw it into a landfill stuffed in plastic garbage bags. That's a great start!
Do you garden yourself with this source of good compost?
I do a little bit. I've grown a few trees with it! I've been having a difficult time with any of my gardening lately, to be honest, and was considering taking the year off. I know I won't, I'll give it another go. Maybe I'll have better luck this year.
Okay @wwwiebe, sounds like you may face similar challenges to us in just how busy life can be. Pulling you in other directions and away from the simple, peace and quiet of gardening ...
We find it to be something of a refuge. And we are fortunate to be at a stage in our lives where we can more consistently apply the needed effort than we were in times past.
Also, your response hints are difficulties in gardening. We are aware that those are almost certainly coming for us as well. Guess we'll just "cross those bridges" when we get there!
Oh yes, time constraints. I continually petition the universe to let me have a 56 hour day; I'm routinely denied. 😂
I love gardening, I really do. Last year I was able to get some good lettuce and a few tomatoes, though the tomato failure was entirely on me.
Good luck to you! I'm interested in seeing how it works out.
