Pile update

I kept adding more and more leaves/dried grass clippings, tons of used coffee grounds from Starbucks, veggie scraps... But it keeps shrinking. It was up to 3 feet high, but it's down to 2ish again.

Do I just keep adding stuff until the shrunk height is 3 feet?

Built up the sides to support it more. Been turning it and checking moisture about once a week. It hasn't gotten hot yet so I probably do need more volume before the warm season starts...

(The stuff along the border is aged natural wood chip mulch to comply with my mom's weed rules without her trying to spray it).
