My composting adventures all started about 9 years ago when our local Penn State Cooperative Extension office offered a free composting bin (the round one in the picture) when you attended their free composting seminar. I have a system going, but I am a laid back composter. So what did I learn at the seminar?

There really is nothing like the experience of eating something that you have just picked fresh from your own garden. More and more people like myself are returning to the joy of growing vegetables, herbs and even eggs right in their own backyards. Gradually, the home veggie garden became obsolete.

From composting and saving rain water to using cloth napkins and reusable grocery bags, I have made many changes in my life over the last 20 years. It was in downtown Pittsburgh at a park where the three rivers meet, if I remember correctly. There weren't a lot of people walking around, mostly hippies and college students.
