Indoor Composting with Worm Bins
Worm bins are a great option for apartment dwellers as they can be kept indoors and don't produce any odor. Red wiggler worms are commonly used for this method, and they can help break down food scraps and paper waste into nutrient-rich compost.
Bokashi Composting in Small Spaces
Bokashi composting is a fermentation process that can be done in a small space, such as a kitchen or balcony. This method uses a special mix of microorganisms to break down food waste quickly, without producing any foul odors. The end product can then be buried in soil or added to a traditional compost bin.
Composting with Compostable Bags
For those with limited space, using compostable bags can be a convenient way to collect food scraps for composting. These bags can be stored in the freezer to prevent odor and can then be added to a larger composting system or dropped off at a composting facility.
