SEATTLE If you're starting to plan your spring gardening, it's time to enter for the Woodland Park Zoo's coveted Zoo Doo.
Zoo Doo is a highly sought after compost, which the zoo says is perfect for vegetables and annuals. It's made of feces from exotic species of the zoo's non-primate herbivores.
The Zoo also has its Bedspread available. It's like Zoo Doo, but has higher amounts of wood chips and sawdust. It is better for perennial beds, native gardens, rose beds, shrubs and tree rings.
You can enter for buy either the Zoo Doo or the Bedspread. You can also enter for both, but you must do so separately.
