    I’m actually giving a talk about composting at my town library tonight! Here is a slide from the presentation:

    And a picture of one of our actively turned piles:

        I’m glad you have a sick sense of humus too =D

        I’ll see how they feel about me recording it… I didn’t really put any presenter notes in the deck so it might not be as useful. If they let me record I’ll happily post it here, otherwise I’ll type up some notes and links before sharing the deck so it’s more actionable for folks.

      Good luck and enjoy presenting! If you are willing and allowed to, could you share your full slidedeck afterwards? Or at the odd chance of it being recorded, please share the video!

      Really cool that you are doing this for your local community =)

        Thanks! I actually used to do presentations for a living so this is a nice chance to stretch those mental muscles again. I’m going to ask to record it, but if the attendees are leery of it I’ll just record the audio and run the slide deck over the narration to share here.

    This is our backyard setup as of last month, in sketch form, before the leaves came out :)

    Nice pile there! I’m guessing this Composting Day is a (US) national thing? A quick search shows ‘Learn About Composting Day’, is that the one?

    Please tell us more. Over here (Netherlands) we do have a ‘national compost day’ in March, where you can go and get compost from the municipality. Great initiative, though the quality of compost is questionable as it’s the end product of whatever the municipality collected in the green bins over the year. And people put in, well, everything. So, it is definitely not a ‘Learn About’ day, while we could use that for sure over here in my experience.
