Truth be told, I was kind of excited to start composting. I used to have a vermicompost bin at my old apartment when I had a backyard, but I don't have outdoor space in my new place and my roommate gave a hard no to the idea of bringing my worm bin inside. I dropped the idea (because really, no worms in the apartment seems like a reasonable line to ask me not to cross). But I never actually asked about regular composting. By "regular" I just mean saving food scraps in a sealed container and bringing it to my greenmarket for pickup. As it turns out, my roommate had no issue with this, so we're officially a composting household again!
This picture is just under a week's worth of our kitchen compost. Usually, we'd have more, but I had the flu this week so I cooked much less than normal. I'm on the hunt for just the right container that will hold a week's worth of our scraps.
This first week's efforts to compost were somewhat uneventful (with the exception of a trip out in the freezing weather to drop it off. Let's hope it stays this easy!
