Composter in winter

Oops, forgot to put the photo of the composter...can you see it here in the back, by the fence?

Composting in mid-winter

Composting is easy even in winter, albeit slower and less material is added.  We mostly add vegetable matter from the kitchen and dropped leaves from houseplants.  We do have bagged fallen leaves, and we sprinkle them on top after adding new bits into the composter.  The hardest part is removing the lid after a big snowfall.  In the photo the composter is the black square thing in the back by the fence.

Aside from composting, dreaming about what we'll plant is the other mid-winter activity that keeps us connected to the garden.
