A great way to compost would be a worm composter. These tools will decrease the amount of trash you throw away each week. I even have a worm composter and it is a great thing to have in the house. The things you can get in reward from a worm composter is well fertilized soil and worm tea (worm urine). Worm composters come in many different shapes and sizes. The composter I have is nice because I can keep it in the house without worrying about worms crawling out of the bin or having an awful smell. The one bad thing about a worm composter is that you cannot put meat in it but you can put a lot of other things in the bin. This link below gives you a nice site to look at that has different bins and appliances. After a little while you will notice that their will be tons of little baby worms in your bin. You might gag a little but it is worth seeing the babies because then you know that they will be helping the army of other worms. If you do use the soil produced by the worms it will give your plants nice healthy and moist soil. With the worm tea you just pour it on the plant or soil and just wait and see what comes. The bin I have has a little spout that you push down and the worm tea comes out of. One thing with the worm tea is that you need to make sure that the little canvas sheet is in the right place on the bottom. I had that problem with mine where the canvas sheet was not covering the whole thing so the tea would just leek through. I also kept a little bucket under the tea spout so when I was ready to pour some tea on my plants it would drip into this small bucket.
Happy composting!!!
