Part 2/10:
My journey into composting was born out of necessity rather than design. Years ago, when I set up those initial compost bins, they served primarily as a dumping ground for organic refuse from the surrounding gardens, strategically located away from residential areas to mitigate potential odor or pest issues. As new homes were constructed nearby, requests from my neighbors began to pour in, asking if they could make use of the compost bins. This engagement led to the establishment of a well-utilized community resource, mainly thriving because of its simplicity and the communal willingness to contribute.
