Great for family projects! submitted by doctorfang on August 2, 2014, 4:11pm This is not your average how-to-compost book. This book is well designed with how-to illustrations and infographics that will appeal to kids and adults alike. Lots of clear but easy-to-digest information on why you should compost, how to create various types of compost piles or bins, and what to compost (and what each type of ingredient contributes to the pile). Fun an educational.
