This review is from: Garden Composting - How Garden Recycling Works (Recycle to Land Series) (Paperback)

I have a large garden and had been meaning to get around to composting for a while and finally got round to getting a composting bin. I was a little concerned about how to do it properly (no instructions with the bin) so I looked for a book. This is the only one and it does the job. What's nice is that in addition to explaining how to do it and the safety tips, it also covers how it all works. Great to take the kids through the science of it as well.
