14 April 2011 Compost from 2009 14 April 2011 Compost from 2009

The compost material from 2009 was mixed using the rototiller. This material will be spread as required. The containing structure was rotting, so it will be replaced after removing the compost pile. A rubber sheet is placed on top of the pile to limit moisture from rainfall. The material from a yard of about 0.4 of an acre only produces about 3 cubic yards of compost. The quality is reasonable. All vegetative material is put through a chipper/shredder to reduce in size. This aids the composting process.
