    they would use their sewage to fertilize the gardens.

    as im sure youre aware: absolutely terrible idea, anyone says this to you: run.

    You have to maintain human waste at a 10:1 poop:notpoop mixture, and then a 3:1 poop-mixture:greenery ratio at 135°F and 6.5pH for at least 30 days with regular turning and mixing before you can use it.

        It’s this, not rocket surgery. Wait a couple years for good measure. Got to move the outhouse once in a while anyways. One hole being shit in, one cooking/starving itself clean, one ready to go into the garden. Size your pit right/get a rhythm figured out and you too can cycle your outhouse through my patented Three Hole System with ease, turning turds to terrific tomatoes

          Exactly. People have been using waste as fertilizer forever. It’s better than petrochemical fertilizer if done properly.
