| book description |
Lower your carbon footprint by creating healthy soil with this guide to composting. As the foundation of organic gardening, composting is a fun and easy way to connect with nature and improve soil health. Most importantly, composting is beneficial to the environment as it reduces the amount of noxious methane gas generated from burying food waste in landfill. In How to Make and Use Compost, composting expert Nicky Scott reveals how and why making compost is so important for healthy soil and the environment, and the best methods for making your own compost. Whether you're composting in a garden or a kitchen, he provides clear guidance on the most appropriate system for your site and explains how different composting systems work, including cold composting, wormeries, bokashi and hot boxes. This beginner-friendly guide features a handy A–Z to compostable materials, as well as guidance on common composting problems and their solutions. It also details how to compost food waste on a large scale, and how to plan a school or community compost scheme. An extensive list of resources, including websites, organisations, books and where to buy equipment, is also included. Beautifully illustrated with photographs throughout, this handy guide is ideal for gardeners who want to become more sustainable.
