Composters

I don't know about you, but I love composters! There is nothing better than sweet compost when it is ready to apply to the garden.

What I have never liked is all the turning needed to keep it cooking.

I've tried many systems before - sticks, can, empty soda bottles to get air and water deep within, and plain, back-breaking turning. Once I even tried putting my compost into trash cans and rolling them around.

Whether they're rooftop dwellers or nestled under a bedroom balcony, your Roma tomatoes and burrito-bound jalapenos will thrive with healthy compost. (less scraps for the landfill, too.) This particular urban-savvy Spinning Composter is made of 50% post-consumer recycled plastic and it produces up to 85 pounds of odorless, fertile compost in about a month. Removable base collects water drippings — a nutritious byproduct. Eight built-in rollers spin to mix in oxygen and speed decomposition. Secure latching door is hinged for filling, detaches for emptying.

Now this sounds more like it! (Click on the image for more information).
