A couple of years ago are local council decided to start charging us for are garden waste bin to be collected (brown bin) we opted out and I decided to recycle the bin and make a compost bin out of it
I started off finding some wood to make a sliding door so in a year or so I can get my compost out




Cameron was more than happy to help cutting some holes in the bin, and it was nice to make the most out of the sun

Next job was to screw the sliding door in place

Then we cut some aeration holes and Ruby came out to inspect the work


All finished and in it’s new home

All of the above was done on September 2013 over the weekend I pulled out some of the compost and I think the chickens approve
