Description
Home composting is a way of recycling kitchen and yard wastes safely and simply in your own back yard. Composting speeds up the natural breakdown of organic material into particles and nutrients. These particles and nutrients contribute to better growing conditions for plants by breaking up heavy soils, increasing soil nutrient content and helping soil retain air and water.
