Hi Afghani,

Did you have any luck coming up with an alternative for cement? I'm researching this as well but haven't had much luck. There is a "green" cement company but only selling to contractors at this time.

Thanks!

Thanks, John! Sorry for delay...I was having trouble with website.

I'm not a homesteader but dreaming of having a very tiny urban farm some day. Presently gardening in a community plot and a small area of a friend's property. Interested in permaculture and being self sufficient but presently everything is very temporary and I have no money to work with. Hopefully that's temporary too. : ) I will post more later.

Hi - I'm new to group. Found you because I was googling "battery found in leaf compost pile". So...I freaked when I saw a rusty torn apart AA battery with part of it's innards still intact. I suppose this battery could have been tossed around over and over again during compost process but I'm focusing on the possibility that it leached into my portion of the pile which is going into my chemical free garden.

I doubt there was any urine near by when battery cracked open. : }

I have plenty of other worries so maybe I should let these thoughts go and move on to my garden plans.

Thanks!
