Composting tips<br />

TIP: 40% of household waste is<br />

compostable, so it’s a shame to send<br />

this vital resource down the waste<br />

stream. Get composting in your<br />

garden or at a community site.<br />

Contact info@bhfood.org.uk<br />

for more info.<br />

TIP: Compost bins can promote<br />

biological diversity in an urban<br />

environment, with rare species such<br />

as the slow worm commonly found in<br />

garden composters.<br />

TIP: Compost bins are the best way<br />

to dispose of your peels, cores, egg<br />

shells, tea bags, coffee grounds<br />

and card-based items.<br />

TIP: Items such as meat bones,<br />

bread and cooked food waste can<br />

be composted using green johannas<br />

and wormeries.<br />

TIP: Stirring the compost<br />

occasionally helps to aerate it and<br />

break down the contents quicker.<br />
