Making compost is a great way to turn garden and kitchen waste into valuable gardening gold. For a better and more efficient composting system, a simple chimney in the middle of your pile can make all the difference.
A compost chimney is simply a channel or tube made of wire, PVC, or sticks that sits vertically in the center of a compost pile. It boosts the natural movement of oxygen, stops inactive and smelly piles, and can even speed up the overall composting process.
