The idea of recycling household waste has not caught on in our homes. Most of us simply stash all our wastes into those polythene bags from garbage collectors and put them outside our gates twice or thrice a week for collection.
But wait a minute. Have you ever thought about what we do to our environment? The truth is, this garbage ends up either illegally in our forests or legally in our already overstretched dumpsites. Home composting affords an opportunity for you not only to stop being part of the problem, but to enrich your backyard garden, reduce reliance on inorganic fertiliser and save on garden maintenance.
