Yes I agree, Edible Acres does look to be more labour intensive. What you’ve described of yours sounds like the ideal balance.
I live in northern Minnesota, so no method of composting seems to work "fast" where I live. My strategy has been to create more composting than I need and just give nature time to do its work. In addition to my chicken run composting, I have 5 pallet compost bins sitting out in the woods. I just fill them up one at a time, and move on to the next bin. I let the full bins sit for a year or longer before I harvest the compost. Nature does all the work for me. I don't turn my compost bins. It's not fast, but I don't need fast compost when I have so much aged compost ready to harvest at any time I want.
