Organic Compost
How to make organic compost
What can you put into your compost heap? Just about anything that was once living is the simple answer although meat and cooked food is best avoided as it can attract unwanted pests.
Ideally you want to use an equal amount of green and brown material.
Green material is things like grass cuttings, leaves, tea bags and leaves, weeds, but definitely not weeds that have produced seeds.
Brown material covers items such as cardboard, wastepaper, newspaper, bedding from vegetarian pets, woody twigs, saw dust, wood shavings.
You can also use nail clippings and hair.
