Composting

1. Choose a place

Ideal compost area is a dry shady spot near a water source with dimensions of 3x3x3 feet.

2.Add the ingredients

The ingredients are those rich in carbon (brown materials) and those rich in nitrogen (green materials) Make sure large materials are chopped or shredded

3.Add water as needed

Make sure the ple stoys moist, but not too wet (It should feel like a damp sponge)

4.Keep things moving

Tum your compost mixture to add air to the mix. This helps speed up the composting process

5.Wait a while

When the compost no longer gives off heat and becomes dry brown and crumbly it's fully cooked and ready to be fed to the garden
