In Compost: Transform Waste into New Life, world-renowned gardener Charles Dowding outlines a no-dig method for transforming any plot by working in harmony with nature.

In trials, Charles has found there is no more nourishing compost than homemade. Moreover, by creating your own compost, you not only recycle your garden and kitchen waste but also nourish your soil, enhance its carbon-storing capacity, and contribute to reducing greenhouse gases.

  • What to compost and how to get the balance right
  • Effective composting for every situation, from balcony gardening to smallholding
  • How to achieve the best results with various systems, ranging from hotboxes and wormeries to single bins, pallet heaps, and multi-bay set-ups.
  • Perfect for gardeners who want to grow vegetables efficiently and sustainably, this book offers a guide to creating sustainable, effective, and nutrient-rich compost.
Why readers love Compost:
  • Myth-busting advice and tips for making your own compost
