Composting: Recycle, Rebuild, Renew

Our home, the earth, is being stripped of its three-foot thick skin. The 1% erosion per year of this nutrient-rich soil will eventually create a global crisis that may eclipse any other the world is currently facing.

Rebuilding our soil is essential for maintaining healthy plants. Many people think commercial fertilizers will do this, but most of them are salt-based which over time accumulates in the soil. These excessive salts eventually cause the problem that plants will either be stunted or may even die. Natures way of rebuilding soil is still the best — composting.
