Composting is a great way to reduce your waste. It doesn’t have to be complicated. Make sure you’re adding wet (green) and dry (materials) and the compost will break down over time.
A smelly compost typically means that it’s unbalanced. The typical ratio of brown to green material is 30:1.
Food scraps and grass clippings are examples of green materials.
Leaves and pine shavings are an example of brown materials.

ABOUT US: We are Alex and Elaina, a couple in our 20s who are currently living on the 3-acre farm in southern Pennsylvania where Alex grew up. We have a garden, backyard chickens, and build or fix anything that we need to. We still work corporate day jobs, but are working to eventually leave the 9-5 lifestyle in favor of a self-built, debt-free, homestead on 6 acres nearby.
We upload a YouTube video every week and post daily on Instagram!
