An Experiment in At-Home Composting: Part 2

What does the composting process look like in real-time? Learners will get to witness just that in this resource, as we take an in-depth look at an open bin system while utilizing the hot-active method. Explore what organic matter looks like after one, two, three weeks of exposure to the elements, decomposer activity, and what some of those decomposers are. What does compost look like after 8 days?
