[quote=Anonymous]If you want to home compost there will be a more limited set of things you can compost bz it won't get to a high enough temp to decompose the items (e.g. no eggshells or meat). If you do home composting, make sure you get a tumbler that you can turn & that it is rodent proof or you (& your neighbors) will be unhappy. Finished compost is good for everything green in your yard (trees, bushes, grass). You can google home composting & you will figure it out (you balance browns e.g. leaves/cardboard/paper with greens e.g. grass clippings/produce leftovers). There are also curbside compost companies (we do this as well as the above) & they will take a much wider list of items (including bones from animal products). GL! It's pretty satisfying to watch your trash output dramatically reduce. [/quote]
