I added newspaper and water to my compost. If it doesn't start "cooking" better, I'm going to move it into the sun. What's your regular email address?

I'll see you soon.

Ready made raised beds, looks pretty cool but pricey. Don't know if there is a local source for them and how much just the wattles cost. They're recycling rice straw from Ca. for them now instead of burning the straw after harvest which is a good th…
