Easy Composters You Can Build

Great little book that cuts through the crap:) and shows some very practical and workable designs. I use large scale open-front bins, made of wood, so that I can use the front bucket on my tractor. Our composted barn bedding, horse manure, chicken guts, and other "stuff", is like magic on our pastures and around our immature Live Oaks, etc. When we lived in the burbs I composted grass clippings and was kicking myself for not starting it years before. I just made a 4 cornered bin using t-posts and hardware cloth (wire). It was 4' square by 3' high. We put all our grass clippings and fall leaves in it and by early winter the pile was less than a foot high. This was from a half acre lot with a lot of trees, but the bin was in a fairly sunny spot. The only thing extra that I did was a couple of times I put a layer of twigs on top so that a little air could circulate after the next batch of stuff was added. Go ahead and go for it! You'll be glad you did! Good luck!

If you are serious about gardening, you already know the value of composting. How would you like to find a reference that brings it all together in one compact, easy to read and inexpensive reference? Well, this is that reference.There are a variety of composter styles and configurations. It almost seems as though you can't go wrong! Well, maybe that is true, but there are proven ways to go "right" and this little book describes them and gives advice on how to get good results with simple arrangements. Eminently practical, simple and clear. And, a bargain price to boot!I recommend it!

It's not hard to compost, but if you're a beginner this is a great book to start with that gives you all the information you'll need. Not very in depth, regardless great beginner information. Good luck!

Love these little info. Pamphlets.

I've had other book on starting seeds but this one is simply stars and so easy and quick to read and understand. Even making your own seed pots ans red tape. Simple. Covers everything with equipment you can buy or you already have at home. It's a valuable resource.

A nice, easy introduction to composting, but the lacking in critical detail. The plans need better diagrams and drawings, especially the more complex bins.

Nicks, budget- conscious advice provided me with just the right option for my first composter. He made the startup steps sound logical and doable. Short and to the point. Great book!

While these books can be a little short and sometimes slim on details, by and large if you're only interested in having the newest shining technology in your home and yard, then this isn't for you. However, if what you care about is not throwing away one more piece of vegetable or one more egg shell into a garbage can, if what you care about is growing bigger veggies, healthier food for your family and more beautiful flowers for your interior decor, then this is your book.
