How do I compost?

Composting takes place naturally through the actions of micro-organisms, insects and worms. We can encourage this process in our backyards by supplying the nutrients: carbon & nitrogen. Carbon is supplied by dried leaves. Nitrogen is supplied by vegetable & fruit scraps from your kitchen.

Steps to Successful Composting (low maintenance option)

1. Place the compost bin on the ground.

2. Add a layer (10 inches) of dried leaves (carbon).

3. Add a layer of vegetable/fruit scraps (nitrogen).

4. After each layer of nitrogen add a layer of carbon.

5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 until the bin is full.

6. Leave the bin several months until it has turned into compost.

7. Start a second bin, while the first bin ‘cooks.’

Want to speed-up the process?

Turn your compost every week during the active warm months.

Winter composting:

Continue with steps 3 and 4 (save your fall leaves!).
