Here's the compost that I've started two years ago. The pile on the right has been through it's second winter now. I was going to use it this spring, but backed off. It will go down in the fall for sure. The dark pile has at least 250 garbage bags of maple leaves that I lugged from curbsides. I'm hoping it really works out well. The pile on the left is one winter old, consisting of everything from last falls vines, a year of food scraps, to many bags of maples leaves and to this springs yard clean-up remnants. I'll flip it later on, and have it hopefully ready for the following fall. Lots of work, but probably worth it. It's interesting to see the breakdown occur.
