RE: Humanure to Worm Ca$tings. How your $hit could be worth more than $2/kg
Don't know if you've gotten the chance to check out the book, "The Humanure Handbook." I recently got a copy and this book is so thorough on the subject it's pretty insane. Dense reading for a subject most people are uncomfortable with.
Yes I referenced it 3 times in the post. But it is hidden in the hyperlinks ;) The main website is great! The entire second edition is available for free from him (how did you hyperlink in comments, that's great!) and I gave a shortcut to the chapter specifically on Pathogens so people could have their concerns addressed by the expert, not me. I really wish it was in every school, municipal waste office coffee room... or at least a common enough word like how Permaculture went from 'what?' to 'oh yeah' in a decade or so.... somehow, Humanure is still taking time. Thanks for the reminder to those who might also just look for the essence down here in the comments @jayjayjeffery I waffle between sneaking things in and blatantly promoting stuff I love, that isn't mine.... but my love and enthusiasm for the information or work of others IS mine ;)
Haha I figured you'd have to know about it.
Hyperlink in comments by using [ ] around the work and () around the link address ... and butt them up together
I imagine it's going to get a lot more common as time moves on. One big issue is the municipal laws against it ... but isn't that an issue behind a ton of cool permaculture concepts, they're somehow illegal! That's why I'm trying to get into City Planning with Permaculture design. It needs to happen!
My Permaculture teacher told us a story of a retired Univeristy professor going to his City Council and shoving his compost in their face. Luckily one or most were gardeners and remarked on how nice and fertile it looked and he pointed out it was his crap, so why not give us the permits!?!?!? And it worked!
