Hi Harvey, That is one method I've read of. I've also read of digging a hole and having the entire pile level with the ground at completion. As I said, I'm experimenting with this and really don't know yet how or if it works. Would a lack of air circulation in a buried pile necessarily cause the anaerobic conditions you wrote about? I can see a reduced circulation, but I'm not sure what the optimum circulation might be. My pile is on the ground as you described, covered with smaller compost and covered with soil. The south side is completely exposed, the north side not so much, it being on a hill. -Aonghas --- On Mon, 11/23/09, Harvey Ussery <harvey@themodernhomestead.us> wrote:
