Seattle Move & Chickens!

I moved out to Seattle within the last week from Denver and it’s so far been quite a trip. I’m out living with my uncle in Preston of all places, about a half hour outside of Seattle. I’ve got a ridiculous amount of boxes I fear to ever look into and have found myself in yet another household without a setup compost system. And with such a beautiful yard it’s amazing that it’s going to waste!

Luckily there is a farm next door that I plan on going to to see if they have extra chicken wire to setup a nice outdoor freestanding compost setup. Maybe even some chicken poop to get it started!! I’ll pick up some free range organic eggs while I’m out it. Since I’m interested in setting up my own chicken system within the coming years I’m sure I’ll be fascinated enough with it to do a photo blog of my time over there for all my beloved readers.

One big reminder of the importance of a composting system here is the septic system. This means no garbage disposal, and thus a massive amount of loose organic material just asking to be composted! I’ll feed them to my worms for the time being but space is running out!
