Description
Through lyrical text filled with concrete processes and facts, readers will build and tend to a compost bin. From creation of the "compost cake" to curing and, finally, using the compost, budding composters will discover what it takes to have a successful bin--as well as the plethora of benefits a compost bin can have to the surrounding environment. Master composter, Melody Sumaoang Plan, shows readers the physical, biological, and chemical processes involved and rich illustrations take them deep inside the murky bin. Robust back matter includes in-depth information on starting your own bin, compost "recipes," and troubleshooting tips.
