Any press is good press - while the overall tone of the article isn't great, I think the Digitech mention was a good one. Sure, they could have constructed it a bit better - but you guys still come across as being an exception to laziness. An exceptional exception at that! Nice!

Refer to the instruction sheet I provided with your bucket for more details. Regards, Al Nikki,

There is truth to this, but it failed to balance the story and explain the satisfaction staffers get out of making the effort, and the fact that many continue to because they WANT to. Kudos to the Digitech team, it takes foresight and initiative to do what could be seen as difficult for many. Anything worthwhile takes effort and you don't have to apologize for that.

I just had a quick read but my impression based on the article is favourable, i.e. here's a company who's willing to spend the time on a new and developing area of environmental concerns in the office where others would probably be deterred (valuing the status quo over change). That says dedication and on the forefront to me - leading the way kind of stuff. Some pave the way - others enjoy the ride after.... and thank goodness for 'pavers' like you! you know what they say, there’s no such thing as bad press!

The first batch had white mold so we think it was successful, but we think the second batch is bad because the mold is green. We got the masher and we use it. Let me know if there's anything else we should be doing. Thanks for the advice Al.

If every small business did what you were trying to do the cumulative effect would be fantastic!!!! Keep up the good work and ignore the naysayers! Bravo!!!!!

As long as the mold is white, everything is going to be okay. Compressing the compostables after adding the bokashi would be a good thing to do. Did you get a potato masher with your kit? I recently started including it as part of the package. Let me know if you don't and I'll get one to you. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any further questions. Cheers, Al http://www.greatday.ca P.S. Congratulations on being included in the Globe and Mail article Hi Nikki,
