When you finish eating dinner, what do you do with the leftover food? Most folks head straight to the sink to through it down the garbage disposal. If you live in the country and have a septic system, you should not have a garbage disposal. By putting your food in that garbage disposal, you are filling it up your septic system with food. An alternative to throwing away the left over food is to compost it.
You can purchase one or you can make your own. Compost can be any size. Start small like the size of a garbage can. You can also delegate a corner of your property by using an area three foot by three foot. Every time you through leftover food in your designated area, throw a little mud or leaves on top of it to help keep the bugs to a minimum. Your compost can consist of left over food, grass clippings, old plants that no longer bloom, mud, and leaves. Do not add rotten or diseased plants. Stir it weekly to keep the air flowing throughout and keep the moisture just right. You want to keep the pile from compacting.
Once your area or container is full, you will have the best fertilizer in the neighborhood. How do you know when to use your compost or when it is ready? It takes months for the food or leaves to break down. So, if you can't recognize the things you through in, then it is ready to use as fertilize in your garden or on your flowering plants. Why waste food when it can be recycled? Kids are great to help. They can dump the food after dinner each night or they can take a shovel and stir the pot or container when needed.
