“When I go into my garden with a spade, and dig a bed, I feel such an exhilaration and health that I discover that I have been defrauding myself all this time in letting others do for me what I should have done with my hands.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson, from Man the Reformer

“We are committed to keeping our footprint as small as possible. Composting is an essential part of that. And it’s quite satisfying. We barely have any trash to take to the curb! We add our compost to the garden… everything grows real well.” Tom, Amy & Maddie
