January 22

Today I was looking at some materials that had been accumulating and wondered if I could put them to other use. I had a few boxes of old paperwork that didn’t need to be kept anymore, and decided to shred it, and lay it in some garden beds under construction as fill. Brown compost right? Add a little fish fertilizer as a green stimulant to break it down faster and done. I always try to keep some wood chips around so I’ll lay those on top and let the heat created from everything decomposing to start turning it into soil. I’m always trying to have some soil developing, so even when I’m busy elsewhere, I’m accomplishing Something that I’ll need later. Done.
