The new compost bucket!

I’m sure this isn’t huge news, but we finally got a new compost bucket. Here’s our old one - well used and VERY broken. We got it for free at the little composting class at the local library.

So I was so excited to get the box from Gaiam with my large 9 qt compost bucket, but was so sad when I opened the box and found packing peanuts. Gross. And bad news.

BUT THEN, I read the enclosed info card and learned that the peanuts Gaiam uses are called Renature peanuts, made from a wheat and potato mixture. They’re completely biodegradable and water soluble. Watch this!

Awesome. And here’s my new compost bucket! So super awesome!
