Composting tips
Composting is a natural process in which organic materials decompose and become nutrient-rich soil. Composing aids erosion control, promotes soil fertility, and stimulates healthy root development. Composters can be purchased from the Simcoe Recreation Centre at 182 South Drive in Simcoe.
How long does composting take? • Composting can take from 3 to 18 months, depending upon how well the pile is maintained • A one-inch (2.5 cm) layer of finished compost or garden soil spread on top of kitchen scraps will speed things up

• A dry or frozen pile decomposes more slowly, as does one that is never turned • Compost is ready when its texture is crumbly and it has a pleasant, earthy smell How do I ensure the compost doesn’t smell unpleasant? • Aerate compost regularly by turning it
• Avoid composting meat, fish or dairy items, as well as bones, pet waste/litter, cooking oil, rhubarb leaves, and toxic or diseased plants and weeds • Add dry materials if it is too wet • Shredded paper can be added to compost that is too wet • Bury fruit and vegetable trimmings at least 6 inches (15 cm) deep
