Composting in Our Community!

My family and I first started composting in our backyard in October. We have really bad composting conditions in our backyard because we don't really have soil and we have a patio. As a result, when we first began, it was almost like indoor composting but it wasn't very efficient. Fortunately enough, a month or two later, our neighbor, Pooja Mehrotra, whose son, Raghav, is also part of the 4-H club, showed interest in composting and gave us the permission move the compost bin to her backyard. Our two families began composting together every week. Later, we found another family interested in composting; this family, the Nigams, daughter, Khushi Nigam, is also part of the 4-H club. Now, the three families compost together in the Mehrotra's backyard and we plan to meet every Sunday. Our goal, as a club, is to get more families involved in our little composting project, so we could preserve our environment on one step at a time, one person at a time; another family in our community is interested already!
