Home Composting

A recent audit of household kerbside waste bins (wheelie bins) revealed that 24% was garden waste and a further 26% food waste. So, let's get composting and reduce waste to landfill as well as improve the environment in our own backyard. Local gardening centres have compost bins and worm farms and information on how to use them.
