God bless,

everything goes into mine but meat and dairy, all manures (except dog/cat, because they are meat eaters, it would probally surprise you how many will dump their litterboxes into their compost piles), I have 3 going at all times, brand new, this years and what I'm utilizing now...

I make my own as well...Its heavy in coffee grounds & eggshells, because Iam addicted to breakfast. :D
When I have to buy it I like the hummus & manure mix, they sell at wall-mart its super cheap is definally better than the garden soil mix I got a couple of years back. It was Scott's brand but I swear it looked like nothing more than top soil & bark dyed black. Really sucked knowing I spent $3 a bag on that.
I also like mushroom compost but I've noticed that you sometimes get mushrooms when you use it so you have to pick them out with the weeds.
