We have a pretty big compost set up that we insulate, and it does make progress over the winter. The compost tumbler that I made for the Urban Homesteaders movie is not as effective for winter compost.

Generally you need a pile at least 3'x3'x3' to get enough heat generated to combat the winter weather. Even then, you have to insulate that. We use straw bales around our pile, and we put several layers of empty coffee sacks on top of the pile. Feel free to call any time and swing by to see our operation.

"Wind, sun could power Rochester airport"

This article was in the D&C today (april 15, 2009). It will be interesting to see if the wind turbines make it into the project. I find it hard to believe that they'll have any effect on the air flow, at least at the size and amount the article is suggesting. As a neighbor of the airport I can tell you we have a lot of wind out here!… Continue
