Hey there everybody

For folks who are unfamiliar with us, we’re a small scale plant nursery that follows permaculture and regenerative agriculture principles. We’ve used tons of wood chips over the years and we’re getting ready to receive more over today and tomorrow. What would you like to know?

What are you doing to limit the risk that you'll end up with compost getting hot enough to catch fire?

It gets monitored and turned regularly. We don't see it dry out much since any turning brings the ducks running from their pond to pick it over for worms and the region has relatively consistent rainfall throughout the year.
