No matter what type of shape your garden is in or what type of soil you have, there is one thing that is guaranteed to help: compost. Sometimes referred to as black gold, compost can remedy nearly any issue in your garden. In today’s episode, I detail some of the best options for creating your own compost. This includes the four elements needed for compost, hot and cold composting, and what constitutes green and brown material. Learn how easy it is to create and use this incredible organic material to take your garden to the next level.
