Despite the frigid temperatures and many of our households finding their kitchen scraps frozen solid this morning, our two active piles are still nice and warm, between 80 and 100 degrees. It is not hot enough for hot composting but there is a lot of worm activity and when we turn the piles there is a lot of steam! The piles are still breaking down, although not as quickly as they do in warmer temperatures.
This week we collected 120.8lbs of kitchen scraps with the Towle household being our star composting household with contributing a whooping 26.6lbs to the total.
As always a huge thank you to those of you who are able to drop off, it makes a big difference!
Thank you everyone and happy composting!
