Infographic Blog Post – Greg Gruschow

This infographic is informative on what to put into compost, the moisture and shade levels of good compost, and how to properly maintain compost. Good compost should be mostly brown and green, as well as slightly moist. Occasionally turning the compost pile can also help. This infographic surprises me, because I originally had no idea how many factors needed to be taken into account when making compost. I thought the materials that went into the compost pile were the only thing that mattered, but this infographic taught me how moisture and shade also play a major role. I believe it is important for our local students to learn that there is more to composting than just piling up scraps.
