Green Police Have Me Thinking of Composting
Composting has not been on the top of my list. I have considered it and it seems simple, but I just want to get it right. Before I would start and then just abandon the whole thing. We usually put fallen leaves around the trees in our yard, but we don’t use the scraps of vegetable matter-those end up going in the garbage. Last night the Super Bowl commercial with Audi and the green police made me think about composting again. One guy was getting a ticket for throwing a banana peels into the garbage and I thought that is the same thing that I do with my peelings.
Here are some YouTube videos on composting that I am using as a resource for composting. It really answered a lot of my questions. One thing I was doing was putting food scraps on top of the compost and that was attracting a lot of pest. A video gave the common sense solution of covering the food scraps with dry material. As I try to compost once more, I hope to get everything right this time around.

Hi there,
Awesome to read that you’re interested in composting. You should really do it! I’ve been composting myself for quite a while now using the Bokashi bin and it works great. It is so satisfying to see kitchen waste being re-used in an environmental-friendly way.
Interesting videos as well, I enjoyed watching them. Thanks for that.
Cheers,
Roel

I am glad that you liked it. I will take a look at the Bokashi composting products and see if they will work for my family and me.
