Have you ever had compost that would not break down? Or compost that turned into a smelly mess?

You are not alone. Millions of people struggle with making compost at home. Composting is such an integral part of gardening that learning to get it right allows you to become a master of your special place.

This book will take you on a journey of how the microbial life in your soil and compost play vital roles in your garden. You will learn why specific things happen when making compost and how to solve common problems.

Here is what some readers had to say when they read it for the first time.

“The most comprehensive book on composting I have ever read!

I thought I knew a thing or two about composting organic materials to use back in my garden as “black gold” but Tony’s breaking down (pun intended) of composting principles and methods has given me a better understanding of the whole process.

If you want to know everything there is about composting and becoming a Compost Master – read this book!

Mark Valencia (Self Sufficient Me)”

What’s covered in this book? That’s easy, let’s take a look at the chapters.

1. What is composting? 2. Why composting? 3. Soil food web introduction 4. Composting elements 5. Selecting where to compost 6. Aerobic composting 7. Anaerobic composting 8. Other composting processes 9. Composting vessels 10. Using compost in your garden

Learn the basic fundamentals of composting and then delve as deep as you like into the chemistry and physics behind composting. I will take you on a journey through a civilization of microbial life you didn't even know existed.

It all starts by wanting to be the master of your domain. Let's learn how to get that garden of your dreams, or grow the best nutrient-dense foods that you will ever grow.
