Waste

Ever recommended a compost bin?  Well it's very helpful for your lawn because it turns into fertilizer for your gardens or flowers.  All you do is make or buy a big wooden crate with a big place to open on top.  Then all you do is add anything such as waste, old foods, cut grass/hay, leaves, etc.  here are some tips to make one or buying one. 

-black bins attract more light so your compost will decompose better

-make sure it is an enclosed bin with insulated sides.

-keep the pile large
