This Week In the Garden
Turning a Compost Pile
Tipton County Extension agent Joellen Dimond shows how to turn a compost pile. In compost piles bacteria break down organic matter. Those bacteria require oxygen to work. Turning compost piles prevents them from becoming matted and blocking air flow into the pile which speeds the composting process. Compost piles should be turned every two weeks.
