What is Compost?
Compost is simply decomposed organic material, either plant material or animal matter. Composting is a natural process occurring in nature without any assistance from man. When plants die at the end of their season they are consumed by animals of varying sizes. Resulting in a natural combination of digested and undigested food; left on the forest floor to create a rich, soft soil.
