i was around the garden the other day, and being new to all of this, have some questions about what's what. there is a pile that looks like leaf mulch, on the ground, and a bin with what appears to be only dry leaves inside - is that right? do people use the leaves that are in the big pile as mulch and put raked leaves into the bin to get "mulchy"? also, there is another (i think freestanding) bin with what appears to be "cooked" compost, ready for use - is that right? just want to be sure i've got all the materials correctly identified! thanks.

The compost area is still being reorganized. For now, the black, round bin does have finished compost available for use now. The large, drum composter is processing what we put in. The large, metal and wood bin is dry material that should be added to the composter after adding kitchen scraps. All this is listed on the sign at the composter. New signs will be posted on the equipment to help as well.
