Man that is cool! If you were interested... there is all the spent grains from the breweries in town... you could build an oasis in the desert out there.... Most breweries throw out a few truckloads a day. No one bothers with them because it's a lot of work to haul them away, but if you were already doing other similar stuff it would be feasible. They compost down, and then besides remediating your land, you can sell or distribute the compost. If you put them back in that low area, I think they would just collect moisture and make amazing soil. I would be down to help with something like that if needed.

Wow bro, that's a great idea. @inspirewithwords has got to hook up with you on that.
Thanks ... It's not my idea... they did it at Growing Power in Chicago and also Closer to Earth in OKC, both are organizations that grow community gardens with at risk youth and raise worms and compost. There is so much brewery waste... we could theoretically have a nice amount of high quality compost for Taos, which has a real need for a good local compost source.
