I don't have lots of worms, but if I dig just a bit I always find 3-4. I'd say I have a medium amount of material here, so I will probably have a BIN such as http://www.wikihow.com/Build-a-Compost-Bin directly in the soil.

Guys I can't thank you enough. I really appreciate you taking the time to teach me about this great technique.

thank you Ken! Great info!
I will probably create another pile to deal with the extra volume and use this method you suggested of moving the older material on top of the new in my current pile.

Thank you Patrick! I guess I will have to remove my pile from the ground and do it properly in a wooden structure.

Hello, i just got started with a compost pile in my home. Its small, I added lots of brown leaves, sticks, paper, and kitchen scraps.
My family consumes lots of fruits and vegetables so we have lots of 'waste' I have been saving those to add to the pile but Im afraid that if I do, the pile wont break it down and the process will last 'forever' since we have lots of new green material every week.

Do you have any tips? Should I create a new pile? Or throw these green away?
I found someone with a similar question here but since I dont have a tumbler I figured I should create a new topic.[

Thank you for your time.
