Often times we use a lot of vegetables to make food but the leftovers and peelings are disposed off into trash yet these could be used to make compost.

During food preparation, many parts of certain food are considered a waste for example potato peelings, onion peelings, and other waste that is got as a result of cutting the parts that aren’t useful during the cooking.

Making compost

Compost is a useful component in gardening and can be used to improve the fertility of the soil.
To make compost, first cut/ chop the kitchen waste into small pieces.
After cutting the materials into small pieces, collect them in a container until you obtain sufficient quantities that can make the compost that you need.
After, move and spread the materials over the compost bin and spread it on top of the bin if it already has some other compost, and then add a layer of fresh soil on top of the fresh materials.
If the compost bin is empty, add the materials and then add a layer of fresh soil on top.
After, cover the compost bin with its lid, and then the process of decomposition to make compost will begin.
