Introduction to home composting

Home composting has always been a no-brainer. Each home compost bin saves 125 kg of waste from having to be transported away, and instead turns it into a great free product that benefits the environment, your soil, your garden, and everything you grow.

This talk will reveal how the composting process works, and explore the various influencing factors to be aware of to gain a better degree of control and confidence in your composting. This course is ideal if you’re keen to get started with composting, get a better idea of how it all works, or fine tune your existing processes for a better result. We will cover:

• The benefits of home composting
• The composting process
• Composting bin types and methods
• Using your compost in the garden
• Common composting questions
