Digging into the 27 year old compost heap. Adding some mid season energy to the soil. Everything goes into the heap salmon, halibut remains, leaves, weeds, wood chips, you name it it goes in. No greasey stuff though. Takes about 7 years to get a good heap going up here in the cold. Once large enough it is self sustaining, its own ecosystem, working year round.
