  Composting with a tractor

This is an interesting post because I was just thinking about how to do some large scale composting for a new garden on rather bad stony soil. I recently read that some folks make the bin walls by stacking hay bales which they incorporate into the pile after a year or two. I suppose they do it to keep the heat in. Does this sound reasonable?

I sounds like all I would have to do is ocassionally use my forks which are about four feet long and lift them through the pile to mix and incorporate new air channels and pockets. I think this would be easier and less messy than using a bucket to turn over the whole pile. Generally, my forks are alway on anyways. Will this approach work or is it necessary to turn over the whole pile? I have a 100 bales of mulch hay that was protecting a foundation footing this last winter to use up. So, I'm off to a start. That is, if the snow will ever disappear.
