Good luck and enjoy presenting! If you are willing and allowed to, could you share your full slidedeck afterwards? Or at the odd chance of it being recorded, please share the video!
Really cool that you are doing this for your local community =)
Nice pile there! I’m guessing this Composting Day is a (US) national thing? A quick search shows ‘Learn About Composting Day’, is that the one?
Please tell us more. Over here (Netherlands) we do have a ‘national compost day’ in March, where you can go and get compost from the municipality. Great initiative, though the quality of compost is questionable as it’s the end product of whatever the municipality collected in the green bins over the year. And people put in, well, everything. So, it is definitely not a ‘Learn About’ day, while we could use that for sure over here in my experience.
Perfect, there we go then! I guess we have an actual moderation team now!
Hey KeraKali!
I noticed in https://slrpnk.net/post/375281 that there was some miscommunication, this community is not one of those older inactive ones. However, if you still like to become a moderator for c/Composting, say the word! It’s not a busy job so far, but it’s always better to have multiple people anyway.
I’m currently doing a three-bin system for the kitchen scraps and yard waste (with some added horse manure to get things going whenever I fill up a new bin). That one actually gives me some amount of compost I use in said yard again.
Three months ago I also started a wannebe-Johnson-Su like bioreactor, so a cylinder shaped pile of shredded leafs and wood chips. It’s only 80~90cm in diameter and roughly 1m high so nowhere close to the actual Johnson-Su design, but it’s what I could make with the leafs/wood and the materials I had lying around.
Lastly I’ve got a very small vermicomposting setup, a bucket with the bottom cut out and some thick wire going back and forth for the bottom. This is more of a small scale continuous flow setup, which I have not harvested yet. Not too sure whether this thing is gonna work out, to be honest.
Bookmarked, gonna need to find some to time properly check this out, thanks for sharing!
