1. Compost needs warmth, moisture and oxygen so…

• Build your compost heap in a spot that catches the sun for a bit of each day, but not for too long or it will dry out.

• Putting a piece of carpet on top of the material can help it not dry out. You might need to add a bit of rainwater if it does get too dry.

• Carefully turn your compost sometimes so that oxygen can get in.

2. Make sure your compost sits on the soil so that worms and other bugs can get up into your compost.

3. Make sure you put a good mixture of woody and soft materials on your compost heap, not too much of one thing.
