We kids use to jump off the hay bales into the chicken mash on my grandparents chicken ranch, and never thought anything about it - followed with a swim in the irrigation canal before supper. Good times back in the '50's.Do you know where asparagus grows best in Oklahoma .... Lateral lines from the septic. Grew up eating that and really did not think to much about it until I was 16ish and it dawned on me what the deal was when the new folks down the gravel road had a new septic system put in and I watched. Then my mind went all over the place . Where did we put the chicken crap, pig crap and goat crap... The garden.
It just compost , right?
