Composting for All

Everyone can compost, whether they have a garden or not. And although more and more people are buying compost bins, they don’t always know how to use them effectively. This booklet sets out, clearly and simply, all you need to know to ensure success. Composting your waste will help to produce healthy plants of all shapes and sizes, besides helping the planet. Why resort to shop-based composts usually made from peat? Leave the peat in the peatbogs where it’s supposed to be, and divert all the lovely compostable material away from landfill sites!
