Composting
Home composting is the most environmentally friendly way of dealing with kitchen and garden waste. It is really easy to start and produces a nutrient rich compost that you can use in your garden.
You can compost:
- Grass cuttings
- Soft prunings
- Plants and some weeds
- Fruit and vegetables
- Egg shells
- Coffee grounds
- Old cut flowers
- Cardboard (torn up)
- Newspaper
- Straw
