About

Thanks for visiting my site, Compost Guide.

A live real person owns this domain, and this is all information I put together to help with looking for the right composter. My name is Lars, and I’m a home gardener and certified master composter out of Dallas, TX.

I know how frustrating it can be to want to have a successful garden, but not really know where to start or where to look for information about certain problems along the way. So if you need more information to choose the right composter, this Compost Guide should help!

If you have a question about composting, visit the Compost Guide Questions page and ask away. I respond to questions quickly in most cases. My goal is for this site to be the ultimate online resource for composting.

I also hope you bookmark the site, so you don’t forget to come back again later. Thanks and enjoy looking around through the info!

I read this on another website.

…including aeration tubes in your pile. You can build one of these by drilling holes in pipe such as PVC pipe and laying the pipes horizontally across the bin about 6 inches off the ground, so that they will provide air to the pile. Put materials into pile after inserting pipe.

In your opinion, would this increase the speed of the composting process?

Thank you so much for this website, me and my friend needed to make a compost pile for a school project and your website was THE place to go. Thanks again! -Rachel

@Rachel, Great to hear you found our site useful. Good luck on the school compost pile. You should be able to cut the amount of trash, especially kitchen scraps, you send to a landfill significantly
