Just Compost it!


Compost.  You never have enough.  And yet I get lazy with it all the time.  Over 1 year we easily fill 3 bins....yes I use basic black garbage pails with holes drilled in the bottom and lid....but if I was more diligent about it I could most likely double that.  Right now everything I toss in is just forming one big frozen mass, but come the spring with a little love and some worms this yuck will make the best addition to the soil.  Might just be time to re-start the worm compost!!  And that is a whole other bag of fun.  
Here is a great list of what and what not to compost:

 2013 was a great year in our family.  
With the Addition of our last little baby....I am just getting to old for this....We are now a family of 6. (4 crazy kids and 2 even nuttier parents!) 
Nathan Thomas Wing was born 6 weeks early on August 11th, 2013.
It was a tough garden year...the heat was a bit too much for me and I let a lot go undone. 
But this year I am already anxious to get started and out in the dirt.
Each year I manage to post a few things and then forget all about the computer.  
This year I am going to try and post at least once a week....
it might not all be garden related, but should be fun!
I am off to a great start....4 weeks into January and this is the first time posting....
I guess it is time to get on track!
