Rather than wade through thousands of search results from google, can
somone point me to a composting site? cheap is good, simple is better,
self-maintaining is best and one that takes the garbage from the
kitchen ou tto the compost site would be miraculous (hey, i can wish,
can't i?)


Make pile
Wait
Use

How difficult is that?


heh, I could have swore that there was more to it, other posters
mention aeration, non-diseaese and seed bearing stuff, and another
mentions alternating with layers of brown material.

but hey, the one poster gave the simplest one. dig a trench, add
compostable material, and bury it. I'll probably go this route.


If time's not an issue, there's nothing more to it. There's more to it if
you want to create usable compost, in a bin, in the shortest amount of time.
If that's the goal, you'll need to go through the torture of using Google
like other people. If you go to advanced search and limit the results to
sites ending in .edu, it'll filter out the trash sites.
