I've had a great experience working with Home Grown.  Tara gets our grains,
and she comes to your house on your schedule, brings her own container (or
uses yours if you wish, and always brings it back promptly), and is always
so happy to be helping you out and benefiting from the process.  I'd love
to see her compost pile; I bet it's the most varied, stinky, and productive
pile I've ever seen!  :D
