I always have a load of garden gold ready for the beds, but it takes up a fair amount of space, so perhaps not practical for the smaller yard. I use a regular black composting bin for kitchen scraps because of the rats and other critters, though.

About Me

Name: Monica

Location: New Brunswick, Canada

I have been married for many, many years to an amazing man in the world and together we have two grown children. I am a Registered Nurse and I first had the idea to start a blog for "older moms" when I started noticing a lot of blogs were aimed toward moms with young children. I applaud these and the help, companionship, information and support they provide and I still remember those days well.....well, most days I remember them well!! However, my kids are grown and I'm no longer in my 30's....or 40’s and some of the information I was getting was no longer relevant and some of the information I was seeking was not out there. I thought there must be others out there who felt the same... so, here I am and I hope I’m not alone!!
