Composting
Compost requires you to collect organic waste from your home and garden. It is made of 75% dry ingredients (leaves, grass clippings, shredded newspaper) and 25% moist waste (vegetable scraps, egg shells, vegetables, fruit, coffee grinds, etc) and is used to fertilize your garden. To avoid attracting rodents, use a contained composting bin that tumbles. To learn more check out Go Green NOLA.
