Making compost is a little like baking a cake and so you need all the right ingredients.
• Get a compost bin and in the base put a thick layer of dried leaves and twigs, these are high in carbon and known as brown materials.
• On top of that add some broken down green waste, then some healthy garden soil, and chicken poo or pellets.
• Add a good spray of water and your compost will have all the nutrients it needs to start breaking down food scraps.
• Add organic matter, such as kitchen fruit and vegetable scraps, which are high in nitrogen and are usually called green materials.
• As a general rule anything organic can be added to compost, but avoid adding meat that will smell and attract pests.
• Remember to keep an eye on your bin to ensure the balance between the green and brown materials is right. Too many kitchen scraps and it might become smelly, so if this happens add some drier ingredients. If it’s too dry, nothing will happen, so add some green materials and or some water.
• Keep your compost bin well aerated, plenty of air will help the breaking down process. A good rule of thumb is to do this every couple of weeks.
• You can always add compost activators such as comfrey and yarrow to help what’s inside break down more quickly.
