The organic waste is taken out to the garden and put into the compost. Over the course of the week and as the bin fills up, the organic waste decomposes. At the end of the week, the compost is moved into the next bin. In another week, the waste which is now more dirt than food is moved into the final bin. The composting bins heat up because of the chemical reaction that is taking place, which in turn accelerates the composting process.
Red worms lend a big hand in the composting process.
Each of the composting bins are open on the bottom, allowing these dirt lovers to crawl right on up in them. After three weeks in the compost bins, the dirt is now almost ready for use. Before it can be spread around the garden , it must be sifted to remove any stray twigs, branches, etc.
