Composting Tips

  • Add as much material as possible at one time
  • Add a mix of lush green material and tough brown material, in layers.
  • Keep the pile moist but not wet or waterlogged.  Cover the pile if necessary.
  • Build air into the heap with branches at the bottom and mix straw in the middle.  This lets air in to penetrate the pile.
  • Avoid using outside inputs; only correct or cure soil nutrient difficiences with additives
