Vermicomposting
Technorati Tags: Getting started. One needs some space in the backyard. Building a compost house is not a requirement. You could start on the bare ground.
Technorati Tags: A thin layer of leaves--for aeration--as base compost
Technorati Tags: Carbon material----white,brown,cardboard,newspaper,sawdust. The only exception is glossy material due the chemical content.
Technorati Tags: Compost covered by damp newspapers and corrugated card board to provide moisture to the unit.
Technorati Tags: A Family Project: Compost being covered by black polythene to prevent flooding and bird invasion. It is a good idea to get the entire family involved to sustain domestic waste recycling. Also if children are involved,it would sensitize them to environmetal consciousness at a tender age.
