Composting has become something ultra exciting for me over the past handful of months. The reward of knowing that my waste will be reused to make greater, healthier soil makes me feel all warm and tingly inside. As i was slapping together our compost yesterday morning i thought to snap some photos and share with the family here (namely YOU @nateonsteemit ).
Good Morning, afternoon or evening Steemit members.
I'm about a year (less really) experienced in composting. It had little interest to me in my past, partially due to being uneducated, or unaware. Mostly because i didnt understand the value of it. When you have a tiny backyard garden, stocking it with soil from the store is pretty easy/attainable. When you're working a 85X42 FT garden that's been abused for decades, composting becomes ultra valuable.
We keep a 1.5 litre jar next to the sink to put all our food waste in, then transfer it to some food safe, air tight containers that i picked up for free at any bakery.
On the bottom i tear up a egg carton to help decrease the fluid from the waste.
Then pile in a couple inches of your compost material, and cover with bookashi: 
Then i just put the lid on and wait till there's more waste.
Once the bucket is full, we write the date on it. Once it's sealed off for three weeks, it's good to be emptied into a dirt mound and covered by soil to become composted soil later.
Bookashi is beauty because you can put items in it that you might not with other composts, such as citrus, and seeds from fruits, vegetables and weeds.
That's it! Pretty simple post. If you have questions on what why or how, fire away and if i don't know, i'll ask my wife: she knows everything. And as always, i welcome your comments, thoughts and insight.
All for now.
