Composting is a simple way to improve your garden soil and reduce waste. Start by choosing a suitable compost bin or creating a compost pile in a sunny location. For successful decomposition, use a mix of “green” materials such as fruit scraps and grass clippings, and “brown” materials like leaves and twigs. Remember to turn the compost regularly to aerate it and accelerate the decomposition process. It’s important to maintain a proper balance of moisture in the compost; it should be moist but not soggy. Avoid adding meat, dairy, or oily foods to the compost, as they can attract pests. With time and patience, your compost will transform into nutrient-rich humus, ready to be used as a natural fertilizer for your plants.
