What is a compost pile?
user
A compost pile is a pile of organic matter and sometimes paper and other materials that people collect and put in a large bin or container in order to decompose the waste. When there are enough materials, they mix everything together with a shovel and it is left to decompose for a period of time until it turns into a soil that is healthy and good to plant with.

How can I start a compost pile in my yard?
user
You can start a compost pile in any space that is easily accessible and has proper drainage to keep the pile from sitting in water. If there is not a good spot where you want to make the pile, you can also make a small pit in the ground that can be turned over and loaded with scraps of organic matter and occasionally some animal manure.
