We've been asked to find a use for the "harvest" from the School of Natural Resources and Environment's composting toilets. Apparently when their facilities manager called another gardening spot with the offer, the reply was "Can't you just flush it down the toilet?"
When I worked for the LSA Dean's Office on the fourth floor of the Dana Building, each and every one of my co-workers refused to use the composting toilets. In contrast, some SNRE employees will use nothing but.
We definitely won't use the harvest in the food gardens at MBG, but where should it go? Another question: does this call for an interpretive sign? Or not?
If we do it right, kids will love it. Not sure about the docents, though.

I've occasionally toyed with the idea of putting in a composting toilet. But it seems like carrying things just a bit too far, in the house, so I content myself with the dog waste composter...
Unusual Harvest indeed! Kind of similar to 'harvesting organs.' Blah, blah, blah...nice brickwork, baby! Love you & Happy Anniversary, Happy Anniversary,Happy Anniversar-eee, HA-ppy Anniversary.
