Cohousing-L Mailing List: Fwd: Rat-Proof Composting

[Trillium Info (trilliuminfo]

Leah.

Trillium Hollow, which also has 29 units, has constructed a 4 box, rat
proof, composting system. I am not an expert on this, but all of us use it
for our kitchen scraps. It was a process of a few months to construct as a
community, with many months of pre-planning. We have had it in use for 6-8
years, and I think we only had a small breach occur once, which was fixed.
If you would like to speak to someone about it, please contact us over
email, and I will try and forward you on to one of our compost team (though
none of them were here when it was built, my guess is they understand how
it was constructed.) Our email: trilliuminfo [at] gmail.com
