why dont you get your husband to do your composting. you should not have to get your hands dirty. good job.

[maximel77]

how do u make sure animals dnt get at yr crops??

There are a couple of ways to prevent this happening:

Animals won't find the bin if it doesn't smell, so prevent odours by mixing in browns and turning the compost often.

Don't put any meat or dairy in the compost

Physical barriers such as chicken wire or a plastic (aerated) bin are also a good preventative measure.

Nice video clip - makes it seem easy and natural and I like anything in my garden that doesn't involve buying lots of equipment. 3 piles is a great idea - our township gives out some good instructions but didn't suggest more than one pile.

I've been composting for several months no so I can't wait to grow some "vegetative matter"

Composters unite! All my neighbors burn their trash & leaves which fills the air (and my house) up with smoke. It's horrible! There is smoke in the air almost every day. I love composting. I think it's fun, & it's a cheap way to get really good gardening soil. Hopefully one day composting will catch on in my neighborhood. Enjoyed your video!

Your example is encouraging and inspiring. As the cool season starts now to end here in the southern hemisphere, it will be good to be able to follow your pattern of respecting and working with the land after its resting time.
