Outdoor peeing could activate a composting revolution
Gardeners at one National Trust property are urging the country to join them in peeing outdoors to help UK gardens grow greener.
A three metre long 'pee bale' has been installed within the walled gardens of the National Trust's Wimpole Hall in Cambridgeshire.
Head Gardener, Philip Whaites, is encouraging his male colleagues to relieve themselves onto the straw bale when the call of nature occurs.
This helps activate the composting process on the estate's compost heap–producing a free supply of compost material–and also cuts down on the estate's water use.
