Learn about the spectrum of possible and practical ways to manage trash including composting in the backyard. Learn about the spectrum of practical compostable ingredients and how to construct a pile that applies principles of structure and density to ensure that your living compost can hold air and water, creating the conditions that diverse microbial populations need to thrive. Suitable for all levels of understanding, and applicable for all sizes of family and neighborhood compost systems. Cat's enthusiastic and simple approach to composting will surely activate your interest and demystify the process.

Cat will be prepared to discuss jumping worms and has included some resources.
