Composting

One of my books in the collection is Let It Rot! by Stu Campbell.  Read it and learn everything you need to know to compost. We have composted for three years. We have a lot of organic material that would normally go in the garbage or sink disposal. It all gets composted. No animal products are composted however and since we are vegetarians, borderline vegans, this is easy enough. We also juice in the mornings and all of the organic material left over goes to the compost bin as well.

There is a lot of life in the compost bin, worms and insects, but it doesn't smell bad and we get a terrific soil as a result. We have a two bin compost. We used The Victory Garden diagrams and instructions to build ours. It is a great way to reduce waste and poor nutrients into your garden. If you have questions please ask.
