Just What Can I Compost?
Composting is easy. It happens effortlessly. Just toss in the ingredients.
Remember compost only needs four ingredients: water, air, browns (any product from trees) and greens (most food waste/grass clippings)
Here are some recommendations:
Animal ( cow or horse) manure, or any waste from animals that eat only plant material
Cardboard rolls from toilet paper, paper towels or any small bits of cardboard
Clean paper, yes your old bills can be composted. Composting uses less energy than recycling!
