Description
Over 25% of products sent to landfills today are organic wastes, so home composting is one of the most important ways we as individuals can have a positive impact on the environment. The simple process of composting reduces runoff and compaction of topsoil, enhances biodiversity, and increases vital microbial activity. Adding compost to your soil will increase plant root growth, making plants more resistant to stresses related to multiple factors including weather extremes and climate change. Compost also largely eliminates the need for toxic synthetic pesticides and herbicides.
