I imagine this could certainly vary from place to place, but in our
municipality, the compost comes from composted leaves, which the city
collects in the fall.

But list! A voice is near;
Great Pan himself low-whispering through the reeds,
Be thankful, thou; for if unholy deeds
Ravage the world, tranquility is here!"
