just started a compost pile in the corner of the garden last summer. currently have a tarp over it this winter. was wondering if anyone has a bin that works well for them that they built. large enough to get a wheelbarrel in and out of it. just need some basic materials list or simple plans for construction. thanks and can't wait til spring.

thawk, the Nov-Dec 2005 issue of Fine Gardening has an article you might be interested in. The author modified a compost bin to unload directly into his wheelbarrow.
