Kimberly, our fat little composting bin, has been hard at work since March 1. The compost should be ready but it has been a learning process on how to get the balance right between green (living/nitrogen) and brown matter (dead/carbon). Right now, between the farm waste and kitchen scraps there is so much more green waste than brown so we've been using shredded newspaper as the carbon source.
Farmer No. 2 cuts up the expired broccoli to feed to Kimberly. Chopping up the waste speeds up the process by exposing more surface area to micro-organisms.
This agricultural Blog has a Clogger in it. Is Farmer #2 wearing Clogs in this Blog? I have known farmers and I have never known one to wear Clogs. Or a Nike hat. Or cut-off Gap jean shorts. And no farmer's tan? They usually wear old boots and snappy JC Penney plaid shirts. What's this farmer's pedigree, maybe Yale?
ReplyDeleteI see other controversial images in this picture. Perhaps other readers can point them out. What say you, Barbara KIMBERLY Reid.
