Hii!! I'm Kelwin. After CFFI sponsored my internship in the US to take a course in Agro-Ecology, Small Farm Management, and Marketing, I am back in Grenada and working as the CFFI Farm Manager.
Start of the season at Ryder Farm in New York. |
New Compost Style:
Using what we learned at the last seminar, we updated our composting system. We changed the width and height to speed up the process. We also inserted hollow bamboo to allow the heap to breathe.
New ventilation system in place. |
The compost-makers at their best. |

The adequate height and width of your compost bin. (3x3) Alway start with the edges of you pile first to maintain a level surface. |
With this new style of ventilation our compost bins are maintaining the proper temperature even on raining days. |
Our young lettuce loves the new compost! |
