Well I have great news and images to share of my latest composting batch.  I started this batch on April 20th and it has been cooking ever since.  I decide to construct a greenhouse like cooker to put the bundles in since the temp. in Portland is not too warm right now.  Plus it can get a little stinky with all that fermentation going on.

This is a shot of my composting cooker

Like I said it can get stinky and it sure was while I had to uncover the bundle from the gunk.

Every time I open a bundle I have an excitement that makes me work fast so I can see what magic has been growing in the darkness.  I was not disappointed this time.  I am in love!  I know that may sound strange but that’s ok.  This will be incorporated in my new collection for sure.  I am thinking about butterflies………….
