Today’s episode is an absolute cracker.
Whoever knew composting could be so interesting?!

It’s genuinely like magic. I still don’t really understand how it works (it genuinely is magic) but after chatting with the amazing Catherine Howells from Barefoot Kitchen I now feel a little less like it’s this kind of dark art full of smoke and mirrors. And importantly, less like I’m cocking it all up. Or at least, if I do cock it up then it’s really not the end of the world.

I thin I could easily become a composting geek (although in reality I’m probably way too lazy) and I can see why people can become obsessed with their compost – Tyson who is in the Knackered Mums has even named hers – I love it!

In my head it was this really complicated process, and there seemed to be lots of different types and methods of composting, but Catherine is so practical and down to earth and cuts through all the unnecessary BS and takes us back to basics, making it feel very very do-able for even the least green fingered of us.

Enjoy!

PS. Using all of Catherine's brilliant info, I've put together a beginners guide to composting which you can find here.
