I know the best compost piles are the natural piles--but I have no place for such luxury.
I live in a development--and have a small, structured garden. That is why I fell for the SEM!

I have plans for a longer, sun-exposure bed yet to be constructed. It is where I had 5 old evergreens
that got bebnt over and destroyed by last year's 4' snow that sat on them for a month.

They are now gone--cut down and the bed is cleared. At one end of it--I plan to make
a regular, open-air 4x4 foot compost bin. To the right--where the bag is sitting....
The rest--I want to build up as a 16" raised bed to grow my veggies in. It is in a full sun area.

I started a thread on the "Soil and Composting Forum" on this....
It went on a bit--and then died a natural death.....

Here is the veggie bed-to-be.....
