Home Composting

There are many great reasons to compost at home. First you reduce your carbon footprint by rejuvenating organic matter and recycling waste. Composing at home also improves your land and gives you a beautiful vegetable garden.
A few thongs you'll need for composing is a compost bin. There are many options available.
Place your compost bin in a shady area in your backyard.
Then fill the bin with organic waste.
There should be a little more brown organic material , than green.
Layer the browns and greens then add water. Turn over the compost regularly to entire oxygen flow. After a few months you'll have a beautiful source of soil conditioner.
Brown( carbon filled) Dead leaves and grass, Ashes, Shredded paper and cardboard, Vegetable remains, Straw and Sawdust, worships and twigs etc....
Green( nitrogen rich) Fresh green leaves and grass clippings, Garden waste, Kitchen scraps such as Fruits, Rinds, Vegetables, Eggshells, Tea bags, Coffee grounds, manure(cow, rabbit, sheep, chicken) etc.
