Question: I would like to start composting. Could you give me some guidance and suggestions for creating my own compost?

Answer: I have often reflected on the idea that if all the organic matter generated in a typical home landscape were composted and returned to the soil, not only would plant growth be improved, but there would be many other benefits. Yard waste makes up a significant portion of what we throw away. Composting diverts this organic material from landfills, extending the life of these facilities and reducing the need for new ones.
