Building a Fast Compost Pile | The Survival Gardener

Geoff Lawton on making quick compost:

It’s impressively brown after a couple of weeks. Looks like it could use a few more, though. Those wood chips are tenacious.

I love his “activators.”

We have a pile of fresh shredded/chipped pine, which is quite fine, and really doesn’t like to decay. We also got two big rolls of unsprayed hay, and we have plenty of cow manure, plus a bunch of grass and weed clippings I cut last weekend.

Today’s goal is to build a nice, big compost pile of our own. The gardens will appreciate it!
