Treasure....


I mean compost. It's black gold. Really, what else can you put in your garden that comes complete with nutrients for another growing season and the seeds? From compost, this year, we have ten tomato plants, at least, and including the one growing under the compost barrel, and many many melons. We have cantaloupe, watermelon, and musk melon -- all growing from seeds planted via composting. And then there is the wee little apple tree tucked in among the stalks of corn. Be still my heart. There's an orchard in the making.

Compost, you've got to love it. (Just don't smell it.)
