After years of living in our own home we had, to move back into an apartment last year due to a change in jobs and a cross-country. Move. One of the things I miss most about my house is my compost pile and backyard chickens. My girls would come running. Whenever they saw me coming out the door with my silver compost pail and they ", d spend hours every day picking through the. Pile for, edible scraps worms and other, yummy treats. It was not just fun, to watch it also kept several pounds a week. Of vegetable peelings and other food waste out of the, local landfill while providing rich soil for my garden and reducing. Feed costs for the girls.After saying goodbye to this, idyllic scene we moved into an apartment with a cramped kitchen no balcony and no municipal,,, Composting program so I ", ve been reluctantly forced to consign our food waste to the landfill.
