[quote=Anonymous]A couple thoughts on this -- if you live in a city with a composting service (they're often run by nonprofits and charge a small fee) that might be the best way to go. I have a rotating bin. It doesn't create quality compost for my garden, really (although I do use the stuff it makes and I think it at least provides some nitrogen) BUT it does radically reduce the amount of waste we produce because even if the end product isn't amazing, the food waste is converted into it -- it's sort of funny how much stuff goes into creating such a small amount of dirt, but I know that if we were to toss the food waste, it would go into the landfill. If we were to take more care in balancing the greens/browns, I bet the compost would be higher quality but I'm not that motivated.[/quote]
