Re: Busy Busy BUSY!

want a quick tip to get things done quicker?
wait for the leaves to come down. then mow while shooting the debris to the
inside , then you only have big clumps of grass clippings and leaves to
compost ( black garbage bags are great for this) plus the mowing of them
breaks it down faster :) then just add this 1 bag at a time to your compost
bin while tossing in everything else from the kitchen (except meat and
bones)

I'm all for hard work outdoors, but I absolutely HATE raking.
I try hard to time the last grass cut to be after most of the leaves
are down.
BUT, now I'm giving serious thought to learning to compost.
I need soil and I'm not budgeted to buy it.
It would also be good for the kids.
Anyway..... the last couple of times I did cut the grass, I didn't
stop to smoke.
In the past, I must have really looked stupid.
Soaked it sweat, panting like I'm about to die, and lighting a
cigarette.
