Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["Scott Berkey" <berkeyscott@hotmail.com>]

I've read the Humanure Handbook and it's quite a fascinating read, very
entertaining actually.  In my small circle of friends and family; however, I
seem to be the only one open to trying the idea of compost human manure.
Everyone else is just too squeamish.

If I remember correctly, the author had his completed compost analyzed
regularly and it always appeared safe for application to a vegetable garden
- but even he used it for landscaping and other non-food producing purposes.

Regards,

Scott

There's a book about using humanure.  I haven't read it.

The Humanure Handbook: A Guide to Composting Human Manure,
Third Edition (Paperback)
by Joseph C. Jenkins 
See:  http://tinyurl.com/mru2l

You could also try Googling on 'humanure', 'greywater', and
'graywater' (note different spellings; I'd try both).

Cheers,
Pat
