During the summer of 1997, I experimented with composting, with limited success, due to other matters requiring my attention. In 1998, I intend to formalize my composting with, by making two compost "piles", using 7 eight foot 4 x 4s, arranged in a "square "figure 8". One side for adding weeds, to wait to be composted, the other side to be the compost.
