I liked your website very nice~
Rt 60 and baseline. I have lived here for about 5 years and trying to get a hang on gardening in the Desert !
I have both coffee grounds (some tea leaves) from local coffee houses, and about 6 bags of pecan leaves, to help build up compost. Not construction materials, but I come to Mesa about once a week, to the 60 and Mesa Drive, and if you are near there I could deliver some for you. Interested?
You have a lot to offer to this group, I hope you find this site useful in your endeavors!
