At animal learning day ready to tell about the circle of manure. Manure application bean bag toss (get the manure injected, keep it out of the stream), make a vermi compost bin (recycle your food scraes like farmers use manure), and cover cropping can reduce sediment losses.

We (the lab group) stopped by for an art exhibit and lecture tonight. Why? Because he was talking scientific data visualization in his art... and because you can see the slurrystore in his ag landscape, and when there is manure we want to give it a look... or a smell.
