About Composting

How does it work?

Composting speeds up the natural decomposition process by providing a perfect environment for naturally occurring bacteria and fungi to break down the tissue and change it into a fertilizer

Where to put the compost bin

Introduction to Composting

Out:

  • bones
  • feces
  • oil
  • grease
  • fatty foods
  • dairy products
  • meat
  • weed seeds
  • diseased plants
  • Improves soil structure
  • Wards off plant diseases so plants have fewer pesticides

In:

  • Leaves and grass clippings
  • Fruits and vegetables
  • House plants
  • Manure
  • Kitchen scraps, such as coffee grounds, stale bread, egg shells, tea bags.
  • Shredded newspaper
  • You can put a compost bin anywhere outside
  • We are thinking of putting the compost bin where the bike rack is.
  • The bike rack is near the exterior of the bridge.
  • This is an ideal place to put the compost bins because there is easy access to the bins as there are two doors near the location of these bins.

Limitations

Composting...

What is it?

  • Snowy, cold weather is not good
  • Neither is dry weather, unless the bin is watered to stay moist.

Composting is a process that turns organic materials into a dark brown substance called compost.
