WELCOME! To my new website and brand spanking new business :)

First Blog entry.. COMPOST, oh how i love compost..

So did you know, composting at home for just one year can save global warming gases the equivalent to all the CO2 your kettle produces annually, or your washing machine produces in three months?

I am sometimes asked by the various curious beings “But why do I need to compost when all my waste will break down in landfill anyway?”

WELL LADIES AND MENTALMEN…

When waste is sent to landfill, AIR cannot get to the organic waste. Therefore, as the waste breaks down it creates a harmful greenhouse gas, methane, which damages the Earth’s atmosphere. However, when this same waste is composted ABOVE ground at home, oxygen helps the waste to decompose aerobically, which hardly any methane is produced, which is good news for the planet, and the smell in your garden.
The best bit about all the compost malarky, is that after nine to twelve months, you get a FREE fertiliser for your garden, plant pots, and veggie patch to keep them looking lush.

Benefits For Your Garden. . .

Your compost is a nutrient-rich food for your garden and will help improve soil structure, maintain the moisture levels, and keep your soil’s PH balance in check while helping to suppress plant disease and nutrition deficiency’s. It will have everything your plants need including nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium and it will help buffer soils that are very acidic or alkaline.
Compost improves your soil’s condition and your plants and flowers will love it!
