the people who have figured out composting
are way ahead in the sporting event known as gardening and their
carry over knowledge resulting from their understanding of how
there is life in that compost pile enables them to have the better
healthier lawns through allowing all living things to work in
harmony with one another.
I have never figured out how one would evenly distribute homegrown compost

over
a lawn. Any suggestions?

Well Bob, you take a shovel and sling it all over an area. Then, you take
a leaf rake and rake it in. Or, you could dump a pile in an area and use a
bow rake to rake it out, then turn it over, tines up, to work it in.


That could be a LOT of work for a large yard. I might just wait for a better
idea.

Why don't you get a compost spreader? You could buy one or rent one.
