Posted by Darcie,For best results, follow these easy steps:
1) Gather compostable kitchen waste (also referred to as green material) in a plastic container.
2) At the bottom of the composter, place a layer of twigs or sticks about 3″ to 4″ high. This will allow air to circulate at the bottom of the pile and to prevent odors.
3) Place kitchen waste onto the twigs and then cover the kitchen waste with a layer of brown material. The kitchen waste and brown material can be mixed together if desired.
4) Sprinkle some soil over top. Soil adds micro-organisms to the compost, helping to speed up decomposition. It also helps to keep away insects and pests.
