Compost Tips

Regularly turning your compost pile will help speed up the decomposition process and prevent any unpleasant odors. Adding a mixture of green (nitrogen-rich) and brown (carbon-rich) materials will create a balanced compost pile. Keep your compost pile moist but not too wet to encourage microbial activity. Avoid adding meat, dairy, or oily foods to your compost pile as they can attract pests. Use finished compost as a nutrient-rich soil amendment for your garden beds.
