Turn your trash into black gold
1/12
Rethink smelly, messy compost heaps. Today's composting takes this organic process to a whole new level—by which we mean cleaner, more efficient, and easy for everyone. With a compost bin that is well-designed to suit your home and garden, food scraps and yard waste will turn into rich humus in about two to six weeks. According to the EPA, food scraps and yard waste together make up nearly 30 percent of America garbage. So with a compost bin, you'll be doing your part to shrink a third of our landfill waste and turn it into food for new blooms.
