Compost food?

What do compost and food have in common? Well, the fruit and veggie waste becomes compost over time, which is then used to fertilize the earth to grow more fruits and veggies! But what I’m talking about in this post, is compost and food being together, at the same time! 🙂

Yep, you heard right, it’s possible. Look what I discovered in the compost bin today…

I’m not sure yet what it is exactly, but I’m guessing it’s pumpkin, from when I made a pumpkin soup the other day. I didn’t collect those seeds for a seed2seed project, because I still have other pumpkins that look a lot better. I’ll collect their seeds when I eat them. They could also be melon, but I don’t think so.

For now, I’m enjoying seeing these guys every time I open the compost bin 🙂 Curiously looking forward to seeing what they turn out to be.

UPDATE: They were eaten by the compost pile 😀
