Spring is finally showing her (slightly) warmer face so we decided to visit the Kompost Kids Community Compost - every Saturday at noon!
 |
| Melissa explains how compost works and what we'll be doing today. |
 |
| First step: check the temperature. One of the piles was over 100 degrees! |
 |
| Layers of food scraps (green source), and wood chip/hay (brown source). |
 |
| PVC pipes with holes drilled in them help to aerate the compost, breaking it down faster. |
 |
| Lifting from bin 2 to bin 3 where the compost will enter the final stage of break down. |
 |
| Sandra is having a great time playing in the dirt! |
 |
| This compost is being put in the wheelbarrow to join the resting pile. |
