All our wood is slow grown for strength and durability and is sourced from F. S.C. sustainable forests. We also use non-toxic wood preservative which is kind to insects and wildlife, so it will not kill worms or bugs in the compost, unlike tanalised (C C A) timber.
The New 'Compact' Wooden Compost Bin
The ‘Compact’ Wooden Modular Compost Bin is ideal very for small gardens and light use. No nails No screws and No holes to dig, meaning it can be fully assembled in just 4 minutes. Standing at almost 30 inches high, the compost bin has been specifically designed to eliminate back strain when lifting materials into it. It is suitable for garden and kitchen waste and features sliding panels for easy access. The closed sides prevent drying out and uneven composting and it is made out of solid wood, which is porous and insulating and sourced from managed forests.
More modules can be added to double or treble the capacity, thus saving you money. Includes free composting leaflet. The lid shown is an optional extra and can be purchased for £13.99

Offering a variety of potential habitats, the top section is made of variable sized canes and the lower of bored solid timber.

We are pretty sure that Kim will do some of this ride. This summer she is planning her 100 mile ride in The Lancashire Loop that she missed out on last year after her knee operation. Lancashire has many hills as well as the occasional flats near the sea. Kim protests that the flat bits are boring!
Love Your Environment!
