Composting is an important part of growing vegetables...

the reason is you cannot expect the soil in your garden or on your allotment to produce bountiful supplies of fruit and vegetables if you do not put goodness back into the soil, The easy way to do this is to make compost from suitable waste. I have hubs about it on HubPages and links further down the page, but here is a very good site to spur you on with composting in the organic way :
