Not everyone has a green thumb. Not everyone has a thumb to successfully help organic waste rot into compost, either. Composting takes skill. Home Depot’s Eco Options helps to make all of this easy for me. This is how I compost at home with products from Home Depot.

![HOW TO COMPOST
[AD] Well, if you’re like me, you get a legit composting tumbler after several failed attempts at DIY compost bins. I’m really particular about trusting brands when they claim to be “sustainable” or “eco-friendly,” so I did my homework, and I was impressed with what I learned. I’m super happy to partner with @HomeDepot to share more about their Eco Options program and initiatives.
So, how do I compost?
• save fruit and vegetable scraps when I cook and eat (freeze them if I don’t compost them within the next day)
• add those scraps to the active side of my two-stage compost tumbler
• add grass clippings from the yard after mowing with a battery powered push mower into the tumbler
• add the BROWN in proportion to the green (this is where I lacked before, read more about the carbon and nitrogen ratios on the blog post)
• sprinkle the right amount of organic compost starter in the tumbler
• add water to help the process and activate the compost starter
• turn the tumbler a few times each week, and continue to add scraps until you want that batch to finish. With the two-stage tumbler, you can complete one batch of compost and continue adding to another batch instead of having to stop adding to it as you would if you only had one bin
• when the compost is done, add it to your organic garden and plants to help them grow and flourish!
