Here's a good pest management resource: https://aces.nmsu.edu/ipm/

Here is a video showing how to make a raised bed out of recycled wood pallets. People are often giving these materials away, so this is a good, inexpensive way to get some raised beds started!

Thanks for the video! Bioreactors make it easier to compost materials that normally take a very long time to break down, like piles of leaves and large branches. The design enables the materials to heat up well and oxygen to get into the middle of the pile for faster decomposition.

Here is an interesting alternative for apartment composting: https://www.planetnatural.com/compostin ... omposting/

As another alternative, there is a local service that will pick up compost. https://littlegreenbucket.com/
