communal composting?

[tinagwee]

God I am almost embarrassed to be asking re this, obviously I read the guardian too much heheh. I live in a flat yet feel I should be putting all my veg cuttings etc to use. The flat is small so my own composter even a small one isnt an option. Also I think my cats might topple it on a regular basis. Anyway I want to know if anyone knows of a communal composting system in the area. Or if anyone has an allotment and wants people's veg waste. Maybe its a stupid question.

Not stupid at all. I feel guilty getting rid of my peelings (what ever happened to pig scraps?) and though I have a garden, I don't compost because I have a worm phobia. (How weird is that?)

If you have a patio or a balcony then you could try a wormery. Wiggly Wigglers do a good line in them......

Depending on where you live then you could try your local allotment I guess. Or the Centre for Wildlife Gardening on Marsden Road used to let you take your organic waste down there. Don't know if they still let you.

That's so helpful Willow - I'm squirming now!

thanks folks

I have the tiniest balcony though and am trying to grow bluebells in a pot so not much room for a wormery but I will ask down at the allotments

if you're planning to grow worms we are opening a new gourmet burger kitchen on the block.
