Choose a suitable location for your compost bin in your garden. Ensure it's easily accessible and receives a good amount of sunlight.
Start your compost with a layer of brown materials like dried leaves or shredded newspaper. Add green materials like fruit scraps and grass clippings.
Turn the compost regularly to aerate it and speed up the decomposition process. Keep the compost moist but not soggy.
Avoid adding meat, dairy, or oily foods to your compost bin as they can attract pests. Opt for vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, and eggshells instead.
Once your compost is dark, crumbly, and earthy-smelling, it's ready to use in your garden. Spread it around plants as a nutrient-rich soil amendment.
Maintain your compost bin by regularly adding new materials and turning the pile. Enjoy the benefits of nutrient-rich compost for your garden plants.
