I've recently started composting in my apartment, which is quite an adventure.

Finally, I get to have houseplants and they stay alive.

If you build up the soil with organic material, the plants will do just fine.

Who loves a garden loves a greenhouse too.

We are big composters. We compost everything - bread, tea bags, coffee grounds. I even dump out my old coffee in the garden. We keep a mixing bowl on the counter and just fill it up as the day goes along, then dump it in the mulch pile before dinner and wash it with the dinner dishes.

I am a big fan of long drop, composting toilets - I like the cycle of using waste. When you have experienced one and seen what comes out of the bottom, it is amazing stuff. It's the most beautiful, driest, sweet-smelling compost.

I just don't tend to cook eggplant at home.

I have become quite good at repurposing and reusing much of what comes into the house. The goal is to generate as little waste as possible.

We're doing a partial green nursery and trying as hard as we can to do as much organic stuff for our nursery as we can.

You know the best thing about having a house? You get to plant whatever you want in the yard and watch it grow.
