Diary Of A Compost Hotline Operator Description: What do you do with Doggy-Doo? Can I put corks in my compost bin? Do worms have lungs? Why is my compost full of thousands of tiny white flies? Vital questions such as these are the lot of a Compost Hotline Operator, as Spring Gillard knows only too well. That really is her job description, and she fields calls like this all day long.

She never left. Her diary entries have been published widely, and-as editor of the Compost Hotline News-she doeswidespread research into urban agriculture worldwide. An avid storyteller, she believes in the power of humor to convey serious messages.... Read More about the "Diary Of A Compost Hotline Operator" on the The Nile Book Store Website
