Composting

Composting is essential to maintain your garden. By creating your own soil through your food scraps you are reusing and recycling your waste and creating nutrient-rich soil. This composted soil retains lots of water, which helps your soil stay hydrated and nutrient-rich. Thus, in turn your seeds stay hydrated and have a better chance of thriving.
