Fresh manure is best

Along our Daylesford route, someone is taking good care of manure. Now it is most exciting to find this fresh supply. Someone out there has horses and a good love of gardeners, because instead of filling up bags with spent, old, leached of nutrients manure, they fill the bags with a fresh batch and to keep it fresh they place this precious fertiliser in multiple plastic bags to keep the rain from washing all the nutrients away. Now on most occasions I turn up my nose at plastic bags but not at these! And into the compost the manure will go for next summers garden to love and behold…

Fresh – just the way you want it.
