This book looks behind the many myths and misconceptions about composting. I empower you with sound understandings of how the process works. I explain quick and easy ways to produce a high quality product that’s easy to use, isn’t full of weed seeds, and brings wonderful benefits to soil and plants alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelated to this, I explain my no dig gardening methods, where unsieved compost is simply spread once a year on the surface of undisturbed soil. A 2.5cm (1in) cover of compost enables fine growth through the year, while making it easy to control weeds. My results at Homeacres have inspired adoption of no dig by The Royal Horticultural Society and Kew Gardens, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompost is being rediscovered. I love how gardeners grow excited when they see that simple additions of homemade compost can quickly increase the quality and quantity of growth in all types of plants. I want this book to spark your interest in composting and bring you success. So you can improve the health of soils, plants, yourself and the wider environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt’s a book of relatively few words and beautiful woodcuts by Jonathan Gibbs. Diagrams and tables help me explain the fundamentals of how to make decent, healthy compost.
