Synopsis
Clare Foster demystifies the art of composting. She covers everything from building a compost box to selecting the best ingredients; from choosing the ideal accelerator to maintaining the optimum conditions for decomposition; and from household and garden rubbish to the best soil improver around. By taking some dead leaves, grass cuttings and old banana skins and enlisting the help of bacteria, insects and nature, you can improve and enrich your soil, feed your plants and nourish your vegetables, restoring the natural balance of life in your garden.
