    Where to start with composting?

    What is the best way to get rid of garden waste quickly without bin collections? With grass cuttings piling up in the bin I need to know how I can start composting asap.

So what steps can I take to make sure our bug hotel is insect friendly? I know that’s not a question you’ll probably get every day haha! Thanks.
