The question you need to be asking is, "Is Dr. Monkey learnin'?"

And the answer to that question would be yes, I be learning.

I've been doing some reading about how to prep for and maintain an organic garden and I built the leaf bin you see in the photos above. When those leaves get all nice and moldy and begin to break down I'll mulch them back into the soil of my garden after harvest time and the garden will get all the benefits of the natural rot process.

I are be learnin' to think ahead. No monkey left behind, woo hoo!

I do the same thing. If they're chopped and/or you add water to them and turn them, they'll break down a lot faster.

Brilliant! Did you start a compost site, as well? With all those healthy veggies you eat, you'll have all kinds of good stuff for composting.
