Went to Olds last Wed (September 30, 1998) to follow up on Green Cone at the Olds College.
Brooke Bell <beell@hotmail.com>
is the student taking on the green cone as a project.
They had installed the green cone at the south east corner
of a shed on the composting technology site. This location was good
for exposure to sun but the underlying soil was high in clay and the water
table was high.
As a result the bottom of the basket had about 3 inches
of water in it.
They will be installing it in a rased bed and continue.
He will be monitoring the material going into the greencone.
He is collecting food waiste from three homes to simulate a family of 6
persons for the duration of the project. He will also monitor up
to 8 paramiters on a weekly, montly and 6 month.
