On my way to the pool, I always pass this chorus line of composters. They are up against a fence that encloses a car impound, one of the places your car winds up when you get towed.
The bins are managed by the same guy who planted a guerilla garden along the chain link fence, beautifying the pathway for all of us passersby. Come summer orange nasturtiums and scarlet runner beans will crawl all over that fence, giving it a much needed makeover. I don’t see the gardener there very often, but hope he knows how much his work is appreciated.
If you’re looking for a new year’s resolution, how about these…park your car safely at home and ride your bike more often. And if you don’t have one yet, get a compost bin going in your back yard. Yes you can can.
Merry Christmas everyone!
