Large pile composting mini-series Day 1 (6-6-2017)

In this video I start a hopefully short miniseries taking you along with me as we compost a large pile of manure, from many species, hay, straw, produce, dirt and other debris. I transported the materials to our site 2 weeks ago. The material had gradually accumulated on the source farm over a 6 month period. Some of the material likely was piled and not turned and went anaerobic and some of the material was mixed with a large amount of dirt and debris.

Because the pile has not started the active composting process adequately to kill pathogens and seeds we are gathering comfrey to help feed the microbiome of the composting process.
Below are some links to the farmers mentioned in previous videos and some of the equipment we use on our site.

Thank you for watching please like, subscribe and share our video. Have a great day!
