HI All,

Our community garden in Norway Maine is looking for a "best practice"  
solution to compost human waste on site. (Not for use in the garden)

Since the garden is in a neighborhood, we need to avoid any odor  
issues. I'm a long-time sawdust/bucket/bin humanure composter, but for  
a public site like this we need something that requires no handling of  
"live" waste and will be a good demonstration/model for the community.

During the season we might have a dozen or more people using the  
toilet on a given day. Winter use would be very limited, but it would  
be great to have a system that works in the cold as well. The site is  
off-grid so high electric use is not an option.

Any thoughts, links, or references to working systems would be much  
appreciated.

Enjoy the strengthening sun!

Scott
