Compost If You Can

Composting in your backyard is a great method to feed your plants and avoid food waste from going to the trash. Food scraps may be reused through composting, which turns food waste into energy for plants.

While not everyone has room for an outdoor composting system, there are many countertop composting systems that make this practice simple and available to everyone. A countertop composter is ideal for city people with houseplants or small herb gardens, whereas an outdoor composter may be suitable for someone with a sizable yard. Small composting containers are another option that you may have in your home.
