Compost: Transform Waste Into New Life

If you’ve not heard or read about Charles Dowding, you have perhaps been living under a rock at the bottom of your own garden, or maybe you are new to no-dig gardening and self sufficiency. Either way, Charles covers so many techniques, skills and suggestions in this beautifully illustrated book on composting that there’s something to learn for even the most experienced gardeners.

A great gift for gardeners and we do have his other books also available!

Feeding soil with a mulch of compost is the surest way to ensure nutrients are available for your plants to flourish. And by making your own compost, not only are you recycling your garden and kitchen waste - you are increasing your soil’s carbon-storing capacity and doing your bit to reduce greenhouse gases.

This book by a no-dig expert covers what to compost, how to get the balance right, meeting your needs from balcony gardening to smallholding, and different composting systems such as hotboxes, wormeries, single bins, pallet heaps and multi-bay set-ups.
