Well, I've decided to try composting our yard and kitchen wastes. Did my usual research on the web and decided to try out the "tumbling" type of composter. Bought one on e-bay and set it up.
Added a bunch of leaves and grass clippings to it today. I must say it filled the 25 gallon barrel much much quicker than I was expecting. Half a bag of clippings and maybe the same in "mulched leaves" and it was half full. I'm now going to add only kitchen scraps to the composter.
Hope to have finished "dirt" in a bout 3-4 weeks if all goes well.

Good luck - mine doesn't tumble, and some creature or other keeps breaking in to get at my kitchen trimmings :-(
