Composter information
Apart from being a source of nutritious compost for the garden, composting is becoming increasingly important environmentally. Organic waste left to degrade without oxygen - as in landfill sites - creates methane, a powerful greenhouse gas contributing to climate change.
Separating out kitchen waste with one of our kitchen caddies, compost crocks or recycling bins (using the bio-degradable compost bags if required) and taking the waste down to the compost heap to create nutritious garden compost helps reduce this problem, and reduce it we must; we have to have 35% less bio-degradable municipal waste in our landfill sites by 2020.
Once the waste is on the compost heap - or in the compost bin - turning it regularly reduces the methane production and speeds up the composting process, easily done with our compost aerator, or you can go the whole hog with our compost tumbler.
