The easiest, least expensive composting method
Worms?
Yes! Composting and vermiculture work together. Many of our customers add worms to their Compost Sak™ bucket. Worms will help with the natural breakdown of compost. They will regenerate inside the Compost Sak™. You do not have to add worms for the CompostSak™ to work, but it can add to the fun!
Why should you use the Compost Sak™ instead of your current method of composting? The answer, of course, depends on how you make compost.
Manage the mess, reduce work
Many people compost by raking leaves and grass clippings into a big pile somewhere in the back yard, and then throw banana peels and coffee grinds on the pile. Every once in a while they stir, and call it composting. This is actually a great method of composting, but it also makes a big mess.
When the wind blows, it makes an even bigger mess. A big pile of mess also attracts unwanted animals such as mice, rats, snakes and other critters. And when the pile turns to compost, raking it up and taking it to where it needs to be is also a mess.
The Compost Sak™ is the best compost bin solution for the big pile of mess. It is a contained compost bin with a volume capacity of over 100 gallons. It contains the mess, and stacks it up. Animals are far less likely to find a home in the Compost Sak™ bins. And when the composting has finished, you can roll the compost bins to the needed location to dump out your compost.
To get started, fill your Compost Sak™ bins with leaves and/or grass clippings from your garden. You will notice how fast composting works by how fast the leaves drop down and compress. Keep filling the compost bins, as decomposing happens. Put your kitchen scraps in, along with the leaves and grass clippings from your garden. Be sure to bury the kitchen scraps (food). Do not leave food scraps out in a way that might attract critters. We have found the best way to turn your garden composter is with a small pitchfork or any long handle, such as a broom handle. Insert the broom handle and push it up in a shovel motion. The stirring motion mixes up the garden composting leaves nicely without getting caught on anything. Do not strain too hard in mixing, as the mix is composting anyway.
Once you notice compost coming to the top of your bins, it is time to start a new Compost Sak. The ideal use of your garden composter is to have two going at the same time. When the first Compost Sak™ starts to look full, stop adding anything to it, and start filling the second garden compost bins. Everything in the first Sak will quickly be garden compost. It will be heavy so don’t try to move it. Shovel it into a wheel barrel or move what you need with a bucket. You may be able to roll the composter to your garden area. Keep in mind that a Compost Sak™ filled with compost will be very heavy.
To start your second Compost Sak™, you may want to peel off the top layer of garden fill from the first Compost Sak™. This will leave only compost, which you could use immediately in your garden.
After dumping the compost, you can re-use the Compost Sak™ bins. The product is guaranteed for one year, but you should get many years of use from the Compost Sak™.
