Compost Bin - Advice

  • Site the composter on soil or lawn
    • If using a concrete base, add a layer of soil 5cm thick to the composter
  • Add some woody plant stems at the bottom of the composter to
    • Help drainage
    • Help air circulation
  • It is important to maintain a good mix of green & brown materials
  • Keep the lid on to help retain heat

When is Your Compost Ready?

    • If it is not quite ready, leave it for another few weeks
    • Some material like egg shells might not fully break down but this will not effect the quality of your compost
