RE: Composting & shredding in community Garden.

I would make sure you use a waiver/release of liability form that
clearly indicates that the person has 1. received training for this tool
(easy to do with a morning of the day of work workshop), 2. That they
are aware of the dangers involved, 3.  That they feel the
workshop/training prepared them to do the described job (which should be
spelled out about where when etc of what they are to do), 4. That they
voluntarily have decided to perform the work.
That should cover you.

My only thought on the shedder is to make sure someone knows "how-to"
use it. Everyone should be able to walk away with all their digits.
Could be a liability. Deborah
