I have gathered bags and bags of leaves from all around the
neighbourhood and I want to get as much composted as possible before
Spring. Any suggestions on how I can hasten the process? I have
brought a gallon of Medina at a local DIY store, but it seems
expensive to buy more of that... Anything else I can use to jumpstart
the composting process?
Also I wanted to mix some cow manure to the dried leaves, any place
where I can get some of this around Austin?

Thanks.
