Let's talk about Compost and what you can do at home, yourself, every day and no excuses!
Palm Leaf tableware - after use can be compost at home in your backyard without the need for professional assistance. The composting of palm leaf products will take between 6 and 8 weeks to complete. After use, wash the plates and cut the palm leaf plates and other items into smaller pieces and store them in a smaller container to speed up the process.
Compost is an organic material that can be added to soil to help plants grow. Food scraps and yard waste together currently make up more than 28 percent of what we throw away, and should be composted instead.
No bio-waste should end up in normal waste, where the valuable nutrients are destroyed in incinerators or landfills, contributing to methane gas production, a potent greenhouse gas.

Your compost pile should have an equal amount of browns to greens. You should also alternate layers of organic materials of different-sized particles. The brown materials provide carbon for your compost, the green materials provide nitrogen, and the water provides moisture to help break down the organic matter.
Finally when your compost is done, it is called humus, known as “black gold” to gardeners. The most common use is as mulch for lawns.
And, in addition - take your time, no need to rush… you have to have a little patience before you can harvest your first perfect homemade compost. But isn't that a kind of part of the whole thing to understand that we cannot control and speed up everything?
