Here are some tips to help you on your way ...
- Keep your compost about as moist as a damp sponge
- Turn it often
- Alternate green layers of fruit & veggie peelings & plant trimmings with brown layers such as dried leaves, dead plants & shredded twigs
- chop large chunks of veggies ( such as cabbage heads etc ) into smaller pieces to decompose faster
- Eggs shells and coffee grinds can be added
- NEVER add proteins such as meat or dairy items to your compost.
- Freezing & thawing helps break down materials so keep composting all winter .
