What I use for compost is mostly kitchen scraps....coffee grounds. I use the filter and all...egg shells, veggie scraps( tomato , onion, celery, mainly thing that are from the frig that are not good anymore )...
When ever I make a lettuce salad, I take the onion scrap and tomato scrap and put in my containers that I have in the house...in which is nothing fancy a old coffee container, I would say can but since its made out of plastic.....
I also put other things in my garden beds....such as
droppings from the rabbits...good for gardens
Muscovy duck droppings, they free range
plus cleaning out of my chicken coops....of rather pens...
plus some mulch......
I just pick a bed and just put the compost in that bed each time I empty or clean out under the rabbit, or clean the chicken coops...in which I try and clean the chicken coops twice a year....I also have a few that free range year around and they have excess to my garden as well....The cleaning out from under the rabbits, I usually do once a week....
doing these things have done my garden very well....Besides I do from time to time I do pick up some bags of top soil and add that as well....
