With almost half of all food going to waste we need to find helpful solutions to the problem. This episode will briefly touch on food loss vs food waste and then give an overview of the 4 types of composting we have tried. This is not an all-inclusive, detailed tutorial- just an overview. We have videos and tutorials of composting types in the links below:
