| Path to the compost bin--no excuses now! |
So, tonight I finally realized that I had to dig a path to my compost bin. We have about 10 or 12 inches of snow on the ground at the moment. I started digging only to discover that there was a 2-inch layer of ice in there too. But I persevered, and I dumped all my scraps, including the container that we collect at the office, into the bin. I filled each small compost container with some warm water, but I really don't know if there will be any action in the bins until the spring. Up until now I've been lazy about composting this winter, but I'm trying to make up for that. It's crazy to just throw all those scraps into the garbage disposal.
I just reread Zero Waste Home by Bea Johnson, and I think that's what inspired me.
