This was an amazing collaboration - a cabbage seller had a problem ... what can he do with his non-sellable cabbage leaves? We wanted to demonstrate how FAST fresh greens process down in volume in a well-managed compost station.
And ... if you know composting, you know that this is the BEGINNING (not end) of a compost mix.
For an amazing compost, you evenly mix GREENS (like these - the cabbage here is a "green") with roughly equal amount of BROWNS (out of the photo on the left are LOTS of collected dry brown leaves) and WATER (to make the whole thing as wet as a wrung-out sponge.
Then you wait for chemistry and microbes to do their magic (3+months). and VOILA! soil ... or at least fantastic soil additive.
