@Sammster @RoyalChick now I’m wondering if it’s even worth moving my pile. I planned on moving it somewhere else in the yard away from the trees but not sure if it’s worth the hassle.
Thanks! Your opinion is how I was leaning…I actually used this same compost this spring in the garden and my garden is growing so surely it’s not too polluted
My compost has been under that tree for about 6 months. I’m sure some twigs and some of the soil has gotten into the compost…do you think if I move it and wait long enough to use it that it would be ok? I really don’t wanna trash my entire compost heap
Point #4. It doesn’t say much

I randomly stumbled upon an article today that says black walnut leaves, twigs, and roots should not be composted for use in vegetables gardens. Well, just so happens that the compost pile I started this past winter is directly under a black walnut tree.
Thoughts? 😆
