The school is in full swing with the municipal composting program, and the garden is in full composting swing too! With the spring rain and longer days the weeds have provided us with great fodder for our piles, and the students are learning what it takes to make good compost-browns and greens, oxygen, and big piles that get warm inside! We’ve been sifting our finished compost and mulching the garden with it for our summer crops, but the number one most popular thing to do with compost piles is to observe the bugs-I will never stop being amazed by how long insects can hold the attention of a student!
