DIY Composting Station

Composting is an excellent way to turn your garden waste and kitchen scraps into nutrient-rich material that enhances your soil and promotes healthier plants. Fall is the perfect time to set up a composting station, especially in the Northeast, where the abundance of fallen leaves, grass clippings, and end-of-season garden waste can quickly pile up. Rather than sending this valuable organic matter to a landfill, you can recycle it into a powerful soil amendment that will benefit your garden throughout the year.
