Home composting is a good way of reducing biodegradable waste (or waste that rots down). The type of material you can put into a home compost bin is vegetable peelings, fruit, tea bags, as well as other garden waste such as grass and leaves if you are not yet part of the garden waste recycling scheme. This waste normally goes into your rubbish bin and gets sent to landfill for disposal. By making home compost you can reduce this as well as generating a product that can be used as a soil conditioner in your own garden.
