Household composting is another form of recycling. Composting your food scraps and yard trimmings not only reduces the amount of garbage you produce, it also creates healthy soil that you can add to your garden or lawn.
Here is a simple compost recipe:
Simply add the ingredients you have, stir, keep moist, and you’ve got compost!
Food scraps: vegetable peels and seeds, eggshells, fruit peels and seeds, nutshells, coffee grounds and filters, and other vegetable or fruit scraps
Yard or garden trimmings: hay or straw, wood chips, grass clippings, weeds and other garden waste, leaves, manure, sawdust, dryer lint, and shredded paper
