Farming -- Compost Manager and Kitchen Composter

The compost manager comes in two different varieties: basic & organic. The only difference between the two devices is that the basic compost manager is uncovered and the organic compost manager has a lid.

The basic compost manager can be purchased as part of the beYou Farming Starter Pack (included with purchase) or you can buy it separately in the farming department. The organic compost manager is sold by itself. Both items can be purchased in the farming department.

The kitchen compost manager is only used to create compost.
