Snails love Compost

...and they're not the only residents of San Francisco that do. Composting is definitely one of my favorite things about the City. Of course I don't like to hang out in the composting bin like these guys...

 

 

but I love the idea of composting. The City makes it so easy. You get a green bin and all you have to do is throw all your compostables in it. No worms, no chopping food scraps up into small pieces, no turning piles or mixing the proper ratio of "browns" and "greens". It's so simple. San Francisco's composting program is the largest of it's kind in the nation, and is helping the city reach towards it's goal of diverting 75% of recyclable waste away from landfills. Not only that, the vineyards in Napa and Sonoma love the rich brown soil that is created in the process. Composting is good for the City, good for the Earth, and help makes some of the best wine in the world. What's not to like about that?
