DR1 user reese_in_va (of the the popular "identify this plant" thread) has agreed to do some posts for the Green Team blog about practicing sustainable agriculture in the DR, beginning with documenting his experiment on composting in a finca context. farm/ranch). He wants to show how the two principal methods of composting (aerobic -- with oxygen -- and anaerobic --without oxygen) work in a farm context, and the advantages/disadvantages of each. Like Luke (lhtown) in his Green Team series about backyard worm composting, reese hopes that others can learn from following his experiences and perhaps showing in the process that environmentally-friendly agricultural practices can suceed in the DR context when someone puts their mind to it.

Great and prolific photographer that he is, Reese provides lots of photos, including one of his horse.
