My mom watering the piles. |
As I have stated before, my Aunt has a large piece of property that includes a creek pretty much cutting it in half. Yesterday, we started two compost piles in her pasture area on the other side of the creek. At the time, I did not have a solid idea on how to add water to the compost piles. My mom who was helping me was grabbing a few buckets full of water to help throw on the piles. After we have finished doing that, we were around the creek when she came up with the seed of a brilliant idea. Before I get to that, I wanted to say that this creek is "running" about ten months out of a year with July and August being the driest. So naturally, if this idea panned out it could help my Aunt out a bit with her water bill. The Utilities bill is a bit different in the county compared to Tacoma. The water bill is separate from power and gas.
