Everything You Need to Know About Compost

If you’re gardening, you should also be composting. Composting is a simple, easy and free way to add quality nutrients to your soil, and better soil means happier plants!

But the thing I love most about composting, is that is takes what would normally be scraps that would end up in the trashcan and re-purposes them. It gives them a second life. That banana that you ate will go to fuel you, and the peel will go to fuel your garden! It’s a perfect cycle and nothing gets wasted.

I may not be your typical homesteader. My husband is active duty USMC, so we pull up roots (pun intended) every couple of years and tend to live in rented housing. However homesteading is a mindset, not a number of acres. My husband and I do everything we can to live simply, self-sufficiently, and as naturally as possible on 1/3 of an acre in the suburbs. We challenge each other to find new uses for things, to make do or do without, to invent new ways to be self-sufficient. I hope you'll join me on this journey, learn from my experiences and share your own! Homesteading is a community mindset and I look forward to hearing from you. http://www.hillsborough-homesteading.com/
