Anyone else making their own fertilizers?

13. I have a huge compost pile and a goat manure pile.

Using my John Deere small utility tractor with loader bucket, I turn it over and over throughout the year. I just spread last years compost on the garden and now need to borrow my neighbors three point tiller and work it into the garden soil. My Amish neighbor brought me another load of goat manure and like last year will add garden waste, egg shells, grass clippings, etc etc to it and spread it out on the garden next spring.
