"You need good compost to have a good garden. It's inescapable. This is a great guide to composting that is not inaccessible to the hobbyist composter. It's a smallish book (no Master Composting here) with a basic explanation of building your compost system, creating the right ratios, trouble shooting any problems you run into, and the pros/cons of different styles of composting. there are several diagrams of different types of outdoor composting bins alongside diagrams of how to create them. The author touches on worm composting, with enough info to get you started on it.
The perspective of the author really helps to take the pressure off composting, which can be a little intimidating to people first starting. If you leave your compostable material in a pile, it will rot. That's how nature works. Now, let's talk about how to speed it up and keep rats & raccoons out of it."
"Useful primer on composting, albeit written in that tiresomely jolly "gee-whaddaya-know" style of most how-to books. It gives a fair amount of background info before cutting to the chase and giving practical info on setting up a composting bin/pile. I found some info online that was just as helpful as this book, which is one reason I'm not incline to rate it more highly."
"I've planted my garden and it's a hugh success so far. I decided I'd like to start composting and ordered this used book - it's a big help but I don't think I'll start putting my compost material in the blender before adding to the pile like the author does."
