What's so great about composting? For starters, there really is nothing better for soil than compost. It not only loosens clay soils, but it helps sandy soils retain water. And best of all, it contains no petroleum-based compounds, as many commercial fertilizers do. Gardens that use compost produce much higher yields of healthy fruits, vegetables and flowers. Plus, landfills across the world are running out of space. In fact, according to a recent EPA estimate, almost a quarter of the garbage in this country is composed of food scraps and yard trimmings. Believe it or not, that's about 60 million tons every year. So if you're not composting yet, it's definitely time to start.
Here's a list of household items that can be composted: Vegetables Coffee grounds and filters Tea and tea bags Crushed eggshells (but not eggs) Nutshells Houseplants Leaves Cardboard rolls, cereal Boxes, brown paper bags Clean paper Paper towels Shredded newspaper Fireplace ashes Wood chips, sawdust Toothpicks, burnt matches Cotton and wool rags Dryer and vacuum cleaner lint Grass clippings, yard trimmings Hair and fur Hay and straw
