Composting entails taking the “"raw sewage"” placing it in a pile and mixing it with other leafy vegetation as well as other soils( depending on what you have on hand and your needs) occasionally turning it and leave it to "cook"i.e, breakdown by micros into nutrient rich soil after at least a year.
This is what you pay big bucks for this "potting soil" at your local garden store.
Farmers have been doing this for centuries, long before the era of petroleum based fertilizers times.
Raw sewage will burn the roots of a plant thus killing it. Plus if the Amish were doing it wrong, there would be be mass outbreaks of typhoid, Salmonella poisonings etc, etc. in Amish communities that third world countries get from true raw sewage
We did the same thing with cow mature to grow our garden year after year and got great harvests and stocked pantries and nobody ever got sick from food poisoning.
Something the "government inspected" Food industry cannot claim.
And unlike the corporates heads of major industrial Food producers and restaurants, the Amish regularly consume what they produce.
Uneducated bureaucrats and the media will be the death of our freedoms as well as our persons.
I just stepped out on the back porch. Someone is spreading chicken manure. It has been inthe air for the last three days. Not strong, but way off. The smell travels for miles.
Cow manure stinks but not real bad.
Chicken manure really stinks with a piquant ammonia aftertase on the tongue and eyes.
Pig manure stinks beyone aything immaginable! Super Bad!
Human manure from the sewage treatment plant stinks with a sickly sweet smell.
Horse manure smells like Congress is in session.
My first paid day of work (50 cents) was baling hay for the day on my god father's farm.
I have some great memories of working and playing on the farm, and I still love the smell of “fresh country air”, when the manure spreader hits the field in springtime!
