The Benefits of Fresh Compost
Healthier soil, better plants and contributing to the natural environment are all benefits of making compost with the ComposTumbler.
• Compost makes hard clay soil more airy so it drains better and provides a healthier base for plant roots.
• Your home-made compost is completely safe and natural. It will not harm kids, pets, or the environment.
• Compost builds humus in your soil and improves soil structure, texture, fertility, drainage, and aeration.
• Compost is a mega-boost for plants. They grow better, produce bigger yields, and yield more beautiful flowers.
• Compost makes your plants more resistant to disease.
• Compost bulks-up thin, sandy soil, giving it more substance and texture to support hardy root growth.
• Making compost is a great way to recycle. Instead of sending kitchen and yard wastes to the landfill, it recycles them back into nature's environment as a high-powered natural fertilizer.
A Self-Sustaining Ecosystem
Composting creates a harmonious, natural balance in your yard and garden.
Food scraps, leaves, grass trimmings, black-and-white newsprint, and plant clippings all contain friendly bacteria. When mixed together in an enclosed environment, these beneficial microorganisms feed on the organic waste and help create a healthy ecosystem.
Through this process, the waste material is converted into compost. By using that compost in your lawn or garden, you replenish the earth with its own nutrients which are ideally suited to your particular environment. It's the perfect example of the three R's of healthy ecology - Reduce, Recycle, Return.
