Hello and welcome to The Compost Bin. I'm Compostwoman and I live with my family in rural Herefordshire. We have nearly four acres of garden and woodland, all managed organically and to Permaculture principles, which we share with Chickens, Cats and assorted wildlife. We also grow a lot of our own food, run courses in all sorts of things and make a lot of compost!
I am a Master Composter and have spent more than a decade as a volunteer Community Compost adviser with Garden Organic and my local Council.
I'm a self employed Environmental Educator so I run workshops and events where I talk about compost, veg growing, chicken keeping, cooking, preserving and sustainable living. I also run crafts workshops and Forest School/outdoor play sessions in our wood.
We try to live a more self sufficient lifestyle here, as best we can, while still having a comfortable life and lots of fun.

Getting ready for a big day!
I have sorted out, washed and ironed my clothes (plain blouse, black trousers) polished my black shoes and handbag, made sure Compostman 's shirt is clean and ironed, sorted out Compostgirl's clean school dress and logo'd sweatshirt and sorted out the letter asking for her to be allowed out of school at 1 pm to be collected by Compostman to come to the ceremony
I have downloaded the instructions on how /what time everybody needs to be at various places ( me -1pm at the latest to robe up in graduand gear, Compostman and Compostgirl to be in seats inside Cathedral by 2 pm.)
I have, I think organised everything... I just hope I can get some sleep tonight!
