compost bins

Compost bins are containers used to recycle organic waste like fruit scraps, vegetable peels, coffee grounds, and yard debris into nutrient-rich soil amendment. They provide a controlled environment that encourages natural decomposition through microbial activity, reducing waste sent to landfills and enriching garden soil. Compost bins vary in size and design, such as tumblers or traditional static bins, and require a balance of greens (wet, nitrogen-rich materials) and browns (dry, carbon-rich materials). Proper aeration, moisture, and occasional turning help speed up the process, turning waste into valuable compost for plants.
