Compost

Jill does your town/city have a community garden program? Call your city, a lot of places do that now. There's usually a small fee, but you can get that back by growing your own veggies! These places almost always have a compost area that you can use. I have helped several cities start community gardens and composting areas. Cities almost always have a part of town that is starting to get run down. A community garden is perfect for these places, brings all type together and at same time utilize vacant land. I find this exposure illuminates the needs of others.
