Organic Composting

Back in the '70's, I made the momentous move from the East Coast

to the West and quickly discovered that much of my garden

knowledge needed an update.

Seattle's climate was unlike anything I had experienced in

Massachusetts or Ohio or Colorado, and many of my

favorite vegetables simply didn't grow well.

A friend steered me to a new seed company, a tiny business called

Territorial Seed, unique in that, rather than trying to tout its

wares all over the country, it would only sell to people

living west of the Cascade Mountains.

Every vegetable and cover crop listed had been carefully tested and selected by Steve Solomon for its performance in the maritime Northwest.

The 1980's saw the revival of regional gardening, a concept once widely accepted, but since lost to the sweeping homogeneity of the '50s

and '60s. Steve Solomon and his Territorial Seed Company

directly influenced the return of regional garden making by

creating an awareness of climatic differences and by providing

quantities of helpful information specific to this area.

Not only could customers order regionally appropriate, flavorful

and long-lasting vegetables from the Territorial catalog's

pages, we could also find recipes for cooking unfamiliar ones,

as well as recipes for building organic fertilizers of all sorts.

Territorial's catalog offered information about organic or

environmentally benign pest and disease controls,seasonal

cover crops, composts and mulches, and charts guiding us

to optimal planting patterns.

Every bit of it was the fruit of Steve Solomon's work and

observation. I cannot begin to calculate the disappointments and

losses Steve helped me to avoid, nor the hours of effort he

saved for me and countless other regional gardeners. We came

to rely on his word, for we found we could.

If Steve said this or that would grow in certain conditions,

by gum, it would. Better yet, if he didn't know something, or

was uncertain about it, he said so, and asked for our input.

Before long, a network of environmentally concerned gardeners

had formed around Territorial's customer base, including

several Tilth communities, groups of gardeners concerned

with promoting earth stewardship and organic husbandry in

both rural and urban settings.

In these days of generalized eco-awareness, it is easy to forget

that a few short years ago, home gardeners were among the

worst environmental offenders, cheerfully poisoning anything

that annoyed them with whatever dreadful chemical that came

to hand, unconscious of the long-term effects on fauna and

flora, water and soil. Now, thank goodness, many gardeners

know that their mandate is to heal the bit of earth in their charge.

Composting our home and garden wastes is one of the simplest

and most beneficial things we can do, both to cut down the

quantity of wastes we produce, and to restore health to the soil

we garden upon I can think of no better guide to the principles

and techniques of composting than Steve Solomon. Whether you

live in an urban condo or farm many acres, you will find in

these pages practical, complete and accessible information

that serves your needs, served up with the warmth and gentle

humor that characterizes everything Steve does.

Ann Lovejoy, Bainbridge Island, Washington, 1993
