Composting 101 Website

Composting is a great way to be more sustainable. Not only does it reduce the amount of waste in landfills and lessen your carbon footprint, but it also helps keep your plants and soil healthy. Unfortunately, there are so many resources on composting out there, it can be hard to know where to start! What can you put in a compost bin? What steps are needed to manage it? How long does it take?

The site covers everything you need to know about starting a backyard compost bin, set up in an easy step-by-step format. Check out the link to learn more about this simple sustainable solution!
