Hi All

On the subject of generating enough compost (and not on green manures)…

If there is a brewery nearby, you might like to try using spent brewery grains and add them to woodchips to make a compost heap.

I’ve not tried it myself, but came across it on youtube on the one yard revolution channel, the title of their video is “spent brewery grains: a new free resource for our compost”

(I’m not sure I’ve mastered the technology with the link here!)

They were facing the same problem of not having enough compost to hand. Video was published in 2013, they should be able to give some info as to how good the finished product was by now ..

It would be great to hear if anybody else has tried this.
