Composting is natures way of recycling organic material. By composting food waste, you keep those materials out of the landfill, feed the soil, entice beneficial insects and cut down on pesticide and inorganic fertilizer use. There are many at-home composting options. For general backyard composting, visit the
Compost Education Centre or consider a
Green Cone Food Waste Digester for the cooked food, meat and dairy that you would not put in a regular backyard compost bin.
