compost TV demo

**j* e* m* s* <h*@sbcglobal.net>**

On a local morning news program this week, I'm doing a how-to-compost 
demo. I'm trying to figure out a way to demonstrate this in a studio 
setting.

I've tried to find a fruit crate or something similar, but have not 
been able to locate one. Most produce people reuse these crates.

I've thought about cutting the side out of a clear plastic bin or to 
use a cardboard box to show how to layer in the various compost 
elements...leaves, grass, dirt, etc. I thought this would work to 
show building the layers. Personally, I'm not a big fan of composting 
drums and would prefer not to demonstrate that, although I'll have 
one there as a prop.

Does anyone have any other ideas they'd be willing to share?
