Compost Your Way to a Greener Home

Composting is a fantastic alternative way to reduce your green waste volume, environmental impact and create nutrient-rich soil for your garden. It's a simple process that involves breaking down organic matter into a nutrient-rich soil conditioner.

What Can You Compost?

• Kitchen Scraps: Fruit and vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, tea bags.

• Yard Waste: Grass clippings, leaves, small twigs.

• Paper Products: Newspaper, cardboard, paper towels.

What Not to Compost:

• Meat, dairy, and oil: These can attract pests and create unpleasant odors.

• Diseased plants: This can spread disease to your compost pile.

• Glossy paper or cardboard: These materials can take longer to decompose.

How to Start Composting

1. Choose a Composting Method:

   • Outdoor Compost Pile: A simple and effective method, but it can be messy and attract pests.

   • Compost Bin: A more contained option that can be placed on your patio or balcony.

   • Worm Composting (Vermicomposting): A process that uses worms to break down organic matter.

2. Layer Your Compost:

   • Brown Material: Carbon-rich materials like dry leaves, straw, or shredded paper.

   • Green Material: Nitrogen-rich materials like kitchen scraps and grass clippings.

   • Layer and Repeat: Alternate layers of brown and green material, maintaining a balance.

3. Maintain Moisture and Aeration:

   • Keep your compost pile moist but not soggy. Water it regularly, especially during dry periods.

   • Turn your compost pile every few weeks to aerate it and speed up the decomposition process.

4. Patience is Key:

   • Composting takes time. It can take several months for your compost to be ready.

Tips for Successful Composting

• Avoid Overloading: Don't add too much material at once.

• Monitor Moisture Levels: Keep your compost moist but not waterlogged.

• Turn Regularly: Aeration helps the decomposition process.

• Cover Your Compost Pile: This can help to retain moisture and deter pests.

By composting at home, you're not only reducing waste but also creating a valuable resource for your garden. So, start composting today and contribute to a healthier planet!
