Prepper Essentials - Composting and compost bins

This episode we show the commercially bought compost bins I have, the contents of the bins, the methods for managing compost, why it is essential to compost, what should go into your compost, and of course I show off the 134 degree temps in my bins.... and we talk about when you get serious about composting you will find that commercial bins may not be big enough.

Look at everything you throw out. You can compost most regular paper items, cardboard, leaves, grass, wood, humanure, all food items, and many other things that we either throw away, give away, or flush away. Composting is an essential part of the sustainable homestead, urban or otherwise.

Very informative vid, I'm sort of lucky where the environment I'm in, composting just takes off by itself with minimal effort from me. Though, if I applied your techniques, I could have faster and consistent results.
