Great read from cover to cover.
I am a new composter. I had no idea what to put into a compost bin. Also didn't even know what to use for the bin. But this book has walked me through picking the perfect bin, the perfect spot to put it, and how to make great compost. I'm having a great time composting everything. My neighbors are also getting involved in my composting. This is the perfect book for the new composter.
