We love composting. We love it so much that I made a short little video all about how much we love it. 🙂
Here are a few links that I found to be extremely helpful when I started backyard composting:
Reduce.org has a great section dedicated to composting. This was super helpful at dispelling composting myths while proving composting can be easy.
The City of Minneapolis has a good explanation of how to add ingredients to your compost bin and create compost lasagna.
Vermicomposting, aka composting with worms, is great for people who do not have space for a large compost bin.
Backyard composting 101, a down and dirty explanation of the composting process.
A list of what you can and cannot add to a backyard compost bin. Please note the list of items that your local curbside collection accepts may differ from this list.
Please let me know if you have any questions by either commenting below or emailing me at maria (at) mariamakesmuffins (dot) com.
I love your video. You did such a good job!
Hi Maria. Have been following your blog for quite a while and was always hoping you would someday do a video so I could hear your voice. I guess because I see your pictures all the time and read all your words that I felt I was getting to know you so needed to hear your voice. It was a nice surprise today to have a video, hopefully there will be more.
Mary
I am so glad that you liked the video. It was really fun to shoot it. I hope that there will be more videos in the future. 🙂
Hello! Great job on the video + I loved all the helpful links you added underneath. Very informational 🙂 I’m going to see if I can find those compost liners for my under the sink bucket!
