I would assume that any agricultural operation that uses locally available municiple sludge is contaminated, especially farms in Mexico. Automobile shops, plating operations, and other places dump their industrial wastes in the sewer and it ends up in the city sewer system.

One reason never to use Milorganite, even if its only on a golf course.

I am so GRATEFUL to live where I do! The Farmer that rents our 112 acres for food crops for his dairy cows is an amazing man!

Yes, when the wind is blowing in the WRONG DIRECTION, it's slightly annoying when the 'Sh#t Wagon' (Manure Spreader) is in operation, but THAT is the smell of Country Living, FREEDOM and SANITY!

As you know, on my OWN garden beds I use my 'patented' 'Ithaca-Grow' which is composted manure and used bedding from my mule and whatever beef steer we're raising that cycle.

You've witnessed my results as far a food production goes. :)

It's a JUNGLE in there, Mid-July!
