Thursday's Spotlight on ... Composting!

My latest project this spring is starting a compost pile in the backyard. I have no excuse to put it off any longer. My father-in-law surprised us last fall with a compost bin. It has been staring at me every day as I get in and out of the car. It's time to get started!
