We have the earth machine backyard composer from Pennsylvania Resources Council workshop. It has worked well!

We paid $6,000 last summer for 10x6 installed at grade and four pergola posts. It's bananas but I couldn't do it myself.

Reply to Looks like Spring is right around the corner.....Gardeners of Pittsburgh, what do you have planned for this year's growing season? by NineFootEightWeight
I have forty-some milk jugs planted up winter sowing cold stratifying native plants for my pollinator gardens and a few with cool season greens. We always do a few weird tomatoes, shishito peppers, squashes, greens. Last year we grew a lot of African and middle eastern greens in the high heat season which was fun! Also fun: purple potatoes in grow bags. Adding blueberries this year (finally!), kiwiberry, American plum, and a third pear tree we hope to espalier in the Belgian fence pattern. We're going to put groundnut apios Americana in a bin and try sunchokes a friend saved. I am trying to choke out knotweed across the street with pumpkins. I'm always trying something!!

I have plenty of chives, garlic chives, tarragon, oregano, thyme, and probably some mints I can share when things green up in the spring!

Here in Pittsburgh I think they have been better the past two years. We try to keep an eye out!

I can be a back up to your back up if anything falls through in the morning. Losing a pet is the worst, I'm so sorry.
