I am trying to figure out how to make a compost bin.
I was given some wood taken off of a pontoon boat. Any suggestions would be a great help to me!!

Also, I really want an Olive tree. I have been unable to get some seeds. If anyone might have some, I could swap and send you some seeds that I have in trade.

One last thing,{I am so sorry}, I am in desperate need of Wisteria Seeds. Any color is fine!!
I will gladly send some other seed to swap.

Thank You So Much for Your Time!!!

I use recycled pallets for my compost, so far it seems to be doing ok.

Way to go Mz Lori.

Send a photo when you can ... inspiration for others. My bin is a huge barrel that my sister got a buy one get one deal several years ago. I suppose I like it.... I think I will paint it this summer. I don't like the brown color that it came in...yuck.

Good Luck with your new earth...add some worms.

Hugs and prayers, Daizy

OMG!!! Yes, I had a small one & when we got to the bottom, I was SO excited!!! I can't get that in a bag! I used it when I planted my new rose bushes, and they are just loving it. I named them after my husband and I. The yellow one is Mark and he is time taker. The red one Lori, well she is a wild one with tons of buds. They are both climbers and I am going to get a few more to make a living fence in front yard.

I will try to post a pic or send one to someone who can post a pic.
