The Art of Garden Recycling Hi,
my name is Doug. I've been gardening in one form or another for as
long as I can remember. Somewhere along the trail I also started becoming very
aware of how wasteful we American humans are. This led me to start doing
every day tasks in a much more conscientious manner in order to avoid as much waste
as possible, while also finding new uses for objects that most people tend to see as without value. I find it very satisfying to turn discards into art or some other
form of treasure. The environment and its
preservation has been very important to me for decades,
creating an urge in me to recycle
everything possible, both at home and at work. My goal here is to motivate as many of you as
possible to begin, or to increase, your recycling efforts. ALSO Read my Articles

One of the most important gardening experiences was when I created my first compost
pile, where I could see first hand my organic garden waste changing into
nutrient rich soil to nourish my plants. It was almost like magic.
