Foodwaste composting (also called 'vermicomposting') is converting certain foodwaste into compost!

The advantages of foodwaste composting are:

  • You can compost indoors or outdoors.
  • It's quicker than composting yardwaste.
  • In 2-3 months, you'll be harvesting an organic fertilizer safe for all plants and gardens.
