Since the ground is still too wet for any further planting out, today became "move all the compost mulch" day. We had enough of our own compost to manage doing about ¾ of the tomato plants. The rest will have to make do with grass clippings and shredded leaf mold as they become available. Weather continues to be cool and wet. At least the cabbage and lettuce likes it. 😀

A black garden card filled with garden compost to be used as mulch. A long-handled pitch fork is resting on top of the load. Mulched garden pathway in background. To the right rear is a weedy patch of milkweed just sprouting.
A 40 foot /12 m wide garden patch showing two rows of tomato plants. There are 13 plants in each row and they are staked up and have wire cages around them. Each plant is about 18 inches/45cm tall. A deep layer of compost mulch has just been spread around the plants in the left row.
A wire mesh compost bin with some old carpeting for side coverage. Bin has one side removed and has been partially emptied. A sizeable pile of compost remains to be forked out. A patch of raspberries is in the background.

Les surprises du #compost maison au moment des #semis.
La plupart du temps, j'ai une multitude de pousses de tomates et un ou deux cucurbitacées.
Cette année j'ai aussi une blette, et ce petit truc que je scrute depuis que je l'ai vu poindre. 🧐

Beware of "compostable" products that aren't actually compostable at home. In digging through my compost pile this week I unearthed 3 forks (from takeout food I purchased several years ago) that I think were made by the California-based company, Karat Earth (aka Lollicup). On Amazon and elsewhere the sentence the company uses in marketing is "simply toss the fork into a compost bin when finished." And the forks themselves have the text, "compostable" embossed on them. On company's own website, however, is a logo from the Biodegradable Products Institute (BPI) indicating, in a small font, that forks are "commercially compostable only," which means they only begin to break down at ~190 °F (88 °C). Somebody needs to file a class-action lawsuit to force greater transparency on marketing materials. #compost #composting #fork #takeout #food #psa #plastic #restaurants #greenwashing #polymer #corn #bioplastic

This week's contraption.

I do a LOT of soil sieving - in my work, large garden projects have soil removed/added by the lorry load, but with smaller ones, I'll bag it up and bring it home to be sieved, mixed with organic matter and then re-used elsewhere.

I'm also opening up the large 'compost' bins, which in reality are just aged cold piles of sticks, grass cuttings and chicken poo.

So it was a long overdue project to make a wheelbarrow frame for (much) quicker processing: the frame itself has a fixed one-inch mesh for initial sorting, and there's a removable half-inch mesh for finer grading afterwards.

Put about half a dumpy bag of waste soil through it yesterday, and will do about a cubic metre of compost today, mainly for throwing into the beds.

Should have done this AGES ago.

A photo of the contraption described in the text, taken from above and between the handles of the wheelbarrow. On top of the barrow is a rectangular wooden frame, with green mesh fixed in its centre. A brown hen is just in shot, coming out from under the barrow.
A photo of the same contraption, with a half-inch silver mesh inserted into the frame. A pile of unsieved homemade compost has been heaped on the frame. No chickens are visible, sadly.

A record-breaking 3.8 million pounds of compost was collected in the second week of a new recycling mandate in New York City — a number so overwhelming that the city is opening a new site dedicated to the “black gold.” #nyc #compost #Recycling #environment #climate #ClimateChange #earth #food #waste #renewables #foodwaste

Del peligro de incendio al oro verde

Del peligro de incendio al oro verde
En los apacibles bosques del distrito de Nawalpur, en Nepal, se está produciendo una revolución que utiliza las herramientas más inverosímiles: trituradoras de ramas y pilas de compost. Un grupo de mujeres de Binayi Triveni está convirtiendo lo que antes era una de las mayores amenazas de la región en una prometedora oportun [...]
