Ecological Environmental-friendly garden Compost , that’s a whole lot of words. But its is all about the last word, “Compost” and many of use gardeners are wondering But you may wonder… Why? … Why Would you Compost? Lets us take you through this wonderful world of composting in this blog.

Compost is most well-known for its contribution to healthy and resilient plant growth. It has a number of complementary benefits to plant growth, among them that it balances soil density, adds and retains nutrients, and discourages disease, pests and weeds.

When you look at the “ingredients” to growing a successful garden, there are a range of elements that work together, including the right amount of sunlight, sufficient water, and soil quality. There are many benefits of composting, which include maintaining and enhancing that soil quality in the garden.

The compost pile is usually made of a mixture of “green” organic materials like food scraps, garden trimmings or fresh manure and “brown” organic materials like dead or dry leaves, cardboard and wood chips. The “green” materials contain a chemical called nitrogen and the “brown” materials contain a chemical called carbon. What does this compost pile produce? Garden Gold
