Black Gold

I mentioned that I  moved my compost bin  out of the clutches of the large tree it sat under and over to the side of the house.

It's been a dandy little spot for it, much easier to hug the house and under the deck when dumping stuff out in ickier weather.

And we've discovered that for larger pieces like watermelon rinds, we can just chuck them off the deck right into the bin 😆😆

But the best part comes when you dig down into it  ....... the moment of truth!





It's beautiful!!! 

Look at all that black gold! 

Finally! After 2 years of fighting tree roots, I have real compost again!!

And tons of it! 

So it's now fertilizing many a pot and bed!
