June's Green Challenge: Compost wares
Join the Green Challenge every month and make one small change to help the environment. Check in weekly for updates, tips and to report on your progress.
I just want to let everyone know that I am kicking butt with this month's challenge which is refreshing after last month's plastic bag debacle. The other day I even had watermelons growing in my compost bin -- or at least that's what I think they were before they got buried under a pile of newspaper.
My compost costs so far are zero dollars. I made my own bin out of an old garbage can. It's working great for me as I don't plan on growing a garden until next year but if I needed compost more quickly, I'd go with a different option. It's also rather unattractive and too large for a tight space like a patio or balcony. Check out the gallery below for different types of compost bins and accessories that will suit just about anyone's needs.
Check back next week for a fabulous giveaway!
