The Power of Composting: Turn Waste into Gold

Every garden begins with healthy soil, and composting is the simplest, most natural way to nurture it.
By turning waste into life, you reduce trash, save money, and give your plants the best possible care.
It’s the heart of sustainable gardening — the circle of renewal that keeps nature in balance. 🌎

At Petal Avenue, we see composting not as a chore, but as an act of kindness to the Earth. 🌿

🌸 Care

Here’s how to start composting the easy and eco-friendly way:

1️⃣ Collect the Right Materials.
Mix greens (fruit peels, coffee grounds, veggie scraps) with browns (dry leaves, cardboard, paper).
The balance keeps your compost healthy and odor-free.

2️⃣ Choose a Compost Bin.
A simple lidded bin, a wooden box, or even a garden pile works fine — airflow is key!

3️⃣ Keep It Moist and Mixed.
Turn your compost once a week and add a bit of water when it looks dry.
It should feel like a wrung-out sponge.

4️⃣ Skip the No-Gos.
Avoid meat, dairy, or oily foods — they attract pests and slow the process.

5️⃣ Patience Pays Off.
In 2–3 months, your waste transforms into dark, crumbly compost ready to feed your soil.

🌼 Composting isn’t messy — it’s miraculous.
