I don't know whose sign this is, but I was mystified by "no bread" on the no compost side, and wondering about the no "compostable container". #compost

Bokashi Composting update!

I don't have the latitude to try and fail with a DIY system (I'm allergic to mold) so I have gone with prefab.

I contacted Canadian company Bokashi Living, and their Bokashi bins are BPA- and PFAS free. That's a good start.

My new (single) bin arrives this week (I don't generate a lot of food waste, a 2 week hiatus on occasion won't be a hurdle).

I'm excited to get started.

Harvested a fresh batch of home-made compost that is teeming with life. Worms, pill bugs, beetles, centipedes, you name it. What a difference with industrial compost that is often heated too much, killing most of the life in it.

Today we emptied one of our full compost bins (200l plastic drums), which had been sitting undisturbed in the sun for a few months. The contents at the top were nearly black, dry and crumbly, full of black soldier fly larvae, and looking quite promising. Alas, the bottom was full of water and smelled pretty bad. (We're usually fairly careful to avoid pouring water in; it's somewhat possible that rainwater got into this drum at some point.)

Now we've drilled a couple of small holes near the base of the two drums, just to let water leak out slowly rather than accumulate. I imagine the holes might get blocked, but suitable poking devices will be deployed to fix it.

I wonder what else we should be doing to help with composting our kitchen waste.
