Trivia Tuesday at Westwind: Nature’s Food processors

Did you know that Westwind strives to process its kitchen and table scraps in a thoughtful, low-energy, and biologically healthy way? We couldn’t do it without our team of garden animals – Dobby and Daisy the goats, the Coop d’Ville community of ten chickens, Ebb and Flow the pigs, and the compost hut. Together these animals (including the bacteria, fungus, and other arthropods that thrive in the soil and compost hut) process the food scraps generated by the kitchen and the uneaten ‘ort’ (table scraps). The result has been a more pleasant smelling trash room, a reduced rodent problem, and a robust compost pile. Bravo team!
