The amazing compost pile

6 months ago Lydia came to town and helped rip out our front yard.  

Remember this?

This sod has been sitting in a pile in the back yard nicely doing it's thing…until today.  We added a few layers of grass clippings and wet leaves, piled it up and viola, an incredibly huge amount of yard debris is on it's way to becoming some beautiful compost.  Someday we'll add it to our new smoke bush, featured here in it's autumn hot pink color pallet.
