What do i do with a Garden Composter?

Put in grass clippings, leaves, kitchen scraps, tea bags, used coffee grounds, egg shells and veggie/fruit scraps in it. Put the composter in the shade in your yard or balcony, keep it moist but not wet. Some worms will help it immensely. Especially red wigglers -ordered through your local gardening center or compost association. Put in about 2 lbs of worms. In about 4 months you should see a nice rich, dark earth. Scoop some out, sift it and top up your houseplants or outdoor plants with a couple of handfuls.
 
Find a permanant place in your garden that you can put it (needs to be on a soil area or grassed area). Put kitchen scraps( no meat), garden waste etc into it. You can also buy worms to add to it to speed up the rate the compost is made. Takes a while, but you will be left with good quailty compost
