DO COMPOST

DON'T COMPOST

All your vegetable and fruit wastes, (including rinds and cores) even if they are moldy and ugly Old bread, donuts, cookies, crackers, pizza crust, noodles: anything made out of flour! Grains (cooked or uncooked): rice, barley, you name it Coffee grounds, tea bags, filters Fruit or vegetable pulp from juicing Old spices Outdated boxed foods from the pantry Egg shells (crush well) Corn cobs and husks (cobs breakdown very slowly)

Meat or meat waste, such as bones, fat, gristle, skin, etc. Fish or fish waste Dairy products, such as cheese, butter, cottage cheese, yogurt, cream cheese, sour cream, etc. Grease and oils of any kind Why can't you compost these food wastes? They unbalance the otherwise nutrient-rich structure of other food and vegetation waste and breakdown slowly They attract rodents and other scavenging animals Meat attracts maggots Your compost bin will smell to holy hell and back!
