We learned about the "art" of composting and a bit of the science, too. Fascinating, really. Our instructor discussed several methods and resources, everything from big piles you rotate to garbage cans in the ground that use the natural worms to compost the waste scraps.
If you're anything like me, the whole thing seems pretty simple, mystical and useful.
I bought two stand alone units for composting for $27/each. One of them for the home, the other for the office at work. And we're going to try the Homemade Food Scrap Digester, as well, at home.
If you want a great summary of the opportunities for home composting, check out: www.seattle.gov/util/services/yard. Doing this at home is such a great way to keep hundreds of pounds of your own waste out of the flow to landfills.
Compost Happens!
I'm in!
