Cow Pots

I was watching Dirty Jobs on discovery last night and and Mike went to visist a family farm. The farmer recyled everything, including cow's poo, which he would but into a biological eater, and extract the solids from the wastes. Once that was done the soild waste was composted in a GIANT rotating drum and turning in compost. The used his composte to make starter pots, kinda like peat pots but much better because it is compost. I was wondering if anyone knows of a place(s) that sell compost pots?

How ineresting. I know that coir is a substitute for peat pots. There are some that are made from bamboo and are considered biodegradable. Try a google search for biodegradable pots.
