composting

When composting your manure you can also add in other plant waste products. Other plant waste products would be potatoes peels, fruit peels, egg shells, coffee grounds, and all those thousands of pounds of leaves your youngins raked up and jumped in and re-raked. If you happen to be getting your horse manure from a barn and it has shavings in it then that is all the better. Horse manure mixed with shavings is the best there is. If you don’t have horses I would be happy to sell you one J just kidding. But usually a local barn will give you manure and used shavings. You load.
