Maintaining a busy life and mindset might propel you forward in some ways, but it can also hold you back from others. What if I told you that didn’t have to be the reality you choose? That you could make the conscious effort to live more intentionally, slow down, and enjoy the present moment instead of rushing to the next one. It has taken some serious unlearning but I am proud of the progress I have made. Today I’m sharing with you how.

This article will help you learn what you need before starting a garden and what makes a garden eco. If you have no idea where to start, keep reading. This guide will help you gather the knowledge to succeed on your first try.

By no means is it the only or even best way to compost — but it’s the way I do it and it works for me, so I figure it was worth sharing with you! I opt for a more hands-off, cold composting process at my home for the sake of time and energy. We aren’t ever in a rush to get the contents out to our home garden so the process is stretched out over a 6+ month time frame.

I am a lazy composter. I don't really check the temperature of the compost, and I do not pay close attention to how moist it is. The length of time it takes to make compost is irrelevant to me. My attitude is just acceptance of whatever comes my way when it is ready. It would be nice if there was a place for me to drop off food waste and not have it end up in a landfill instead of managing it myself but for now, we will continue managing it at home.
