	backyard composting John Roulac Composting allows you to do something for the part of the Earth you live with day by day: your own back garden. This book follows basic values, such as putting things where they belong and not making a mess. Composting at home reduces your personal volume of rubbish, conserves water, increases plant growth, replaces the need for toxic chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and is also fun. While you may not win an "environmental hero of the year" award, your trees, earthworms, butterflies and other flora and fauna will be grateful for your composting achievements. The book also introduces the various types of composting bins and accessories, explaining the pros and cons of each type and giving instructions for building one from scrap materials. 96pp more on composting Price: £4.95
