What is Compost?

Compost is simply the natural organic material produced by the breakdown and decay of vegetable matter. A layer of compost spread 5 to 10 centimetres on the garden as a mulch will:

Vastly improve the quality of the soil
Act as a protective layer from the elements.
Increase moisture retention, reducing the need for water.
Multiply the earthworm population by up to ten times, thereby greatly increasing the soils aeration and nitrogen content.
Significantly retards weed growth.

In just 14 days the Tumbler will convert a load of fresh organic matter into rich, crumbly compost ready to spread immediately onto your garden.
