    Over the long holiday weekend I bought and set up my compost bin. I've never been so excited about watching things turn into dirt. A coworker and I started it together at our homes and are looking forward to the next 6 months!

    I've been wanting to start composting at home and thought there's no time like the present! You can purchase one and have it delivered through Waste Management or go to their office in Castroville or Carmel Valley and pick it up! I'm super excited!
