Food composting
The Closed-Loop Community Compost Program!
This is the Closed-Loop Community Compost Program! We divert food waste from our neighbors, keeping it out of the landfill and making compost to grow food with instead. We do it by bicycle which means burning no fossil fuels. Plus we harvest rainwater and grow our own sponges to wash the buckets!

How much, how little compost do you need to grow great vegetables?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4APqcvo-gqE
This video is relevant to all gardeners, whether or not you dig/till the soil. There is no right / wrong amount of compost.
My explanations are from 40 years of an organic approach, using no synthetic or artificially manufactured fertilisers or feeds. All fertility is from compost, with best results from leaving it on the surface, as in no dig.
