Composting
Before I left the USA to teach English in China, I crashed at a friend’s house, trying to find my way. My way led me to her backyard, looking for something to do until I left for my new job. I found myself in the desert of California, trying to turn the desert green. I found that with simple tools, and a whole lot of horse manure, and all the fruit and vegetable scraps I could gather from Costco, and local supermarkets, with the proper soil manipulation, you can produce a bountiful year-round. Since then, I have been reading and researching every book on the market, trying to educate myself the old fashioned way.
This book is not just a book on composting, it is an entire semester course at a University. I wish I knew then, what I know now. But two things are for certain; 1. It doesn’t happen overnight, and 2. You will learn patience while reconnecting to the earth. But uncertain of how long I will be teaching in China, I have already started ‘collecting’ all winter long, and now that the weather has finally warmed up, am getting outside with all the ‘grandmas’ and working my little piece of soil in my neighborhood. This book inspired me to ‘dig in’ and get started now. Make some mistakes now, so that upon my return, I can begin my sustainable permaculture dream, but first I must become sustainable in my daily life.
As a resource, this book is a complete and easy to read, well organized tool that I know I will reference time and again during my gardening journey. After reading this book, you need to start right away, and make some mistakes. My biggest problem with my worm compost bin was that it was too moist, and I had white maggots (don’t be shy, it might happen to you), and flies… I never did exactly figure out the balance while I was home, but watering down my worm compost bin, the little holes I drilled in the bottom of the container… Priceless ‘worm tea’ was harvested weekly that made the tomatoes and the marigolds in the tomato beds thrive.
Thank you for an amazing resource. I will reference this book often!

Composting How Organic Gardeners Let it Rot and Make Homegrown Humus Organic Gardening for Beginners eBook Gaia Rodale Organic Gardening Books Reviews


A fairly comprehensive guide to making compost. Doesn't go incredibly in depth but covers all the basics for anyone trying to get started and don't know how to go about it.
I've been thinking of finally
getting my organic garden started
so I'm glad I found this book. "Composting"
is loaded with tips, techniques, ideas,
and strategies to accelerate your progress
big time. I like the section on combination systems.
Thanks!
The list of materials to get started is great! Also frequency of turning is good info. Would like more info on tumblers. Also it references the types of matter then later refers to them as green and brown. I understand the terms but someone new to composting may not get the term and the connection. Overall a great source of info.
You might have been led to believe rotting is bad. But not in the organic wheel of a garden! Take those banana peels and scraps and make them work for you by feeding your hungry garden. You will feel better about the environment too! Learn everything you need to know in this great book from hot to cold composting. Be earth friendly and enjoy the fruits of your labor in this 5 STAR must read!
Since I'm just getting started, I found this book to be a great overview of the basics and I understand more about the various options (vermicomposting with worms, hot and cold piles, as well as hybrid approaches). If I were building my own bin, I would probably need more detail than this book provides. I feel like it had enough information to get me started. We'll see how it goes!
Composting is a highly informative, well written book, one I really recommend. I bought this book for my son and daughter-in-law and got a chance to read it today while at their house. In a previous house I owned I had a 8 x 24 ft compost pile. This author covers this subject so well, it almost made me (I'm in my 70s) want to come home and start a compost pile of my own. Hats off to Gaia Rodale for her concise, interesting book!
I learned from this book why composting is important to organic gardeners. I also learned about the famous 3R Reduce, Recycle, and Reuse. This book imparted me with the most important factors for successful composting. There's more to it than just tossing scraps into a pile in the backyard. I learned what can be composed and what can't. This is super important for the health of you garden and your family. I also learned what the difference between hot and cold composting are. Great work!
