Default Musings on Compost Heaps (and the things you find in them)

On completely emptying out a worm compost bin earlier this year ( I
usually leave a few inches in to start off the next new batch ) I
found a silver plated spoon that was given to my son on his birth. I
reckon it'd been there about 8 years.

As an aside, a couple of years ago I dug a new bed and heaped loads of
garden compost on it. Later that year it threw up half a dozen or so
tomato plants which yielded a fine crop of cherry toms.


Regards,
