I Am the World's Worst Composter
Yes, this is my compost. It has weeds growing in it, and the chicken wire is falling down, and it's generally a wretched sight. Naturally, I put it where it's visible from one entire side of the house all year round, including the living room. It's also directly underneath the black walnut tree, so even if I happened, purely by accident, to produce compost, it would be poisonous to a long list of plants. However, last week I got paid and inspired and I started to redo it. This makes me so happy:
There's more work to be done, but it already looks a lot better, and with covered compost that isn't full of toxic black walnuts I might even be able to use it for something someday.
