Brenda Reichle of the St. Helena area of Nebraska, learned how to recycle available lawn clippings, twigs, green and brown leaves, and kitchen plant materials such as coffee grounds and garden waste to make compost for her garden. She uses the compost in her vegetable garden and with other plantings.
Brenda Reichle makes use of her yard natural waste materials and turns them into “black gold.” See the description of how she does this in the Yankton Press & Dakotan newspaper article: http://yankton.net/articles/2012/02/17/river_city/doc4f3d9f8344f71161529461.txt
