Composting
Composting is a great way to cut down on the amount of waste that ends up in your black sack.
Plus, at the end of it, you get a really good quality soil to use on your garden.
What to compost
There are plenty of materials around the kitchen and garden that can go into your compost bin, and some you should keep out:
Put it in | Keep it out |
Fruit and vegetable peelings | Meat and fish |
The materials will take roughly 9 months to break down into the very dark, crumbly texture that you can use round the garden.
Hampshire County Council have teamed up with Get Composting to offer reduced price compost bins to residents
