Amazing. Even bigger than my pile. I didnt see any worms though. Will check
ths weekend. If only the stable owner wouldnt make it so hard to drive up to
the pile. As cold as it it is here in NYC I am thinking of dropping a few
worms in my pile to speed up the decompositoon rate. Thanks.

Worms help, but what breaks compost down are micro organisms, proper moisture to
support them, and a good ratio of nitrogenous material and carbon material
(leaves for example).
