Rustic Compost Bin

22 years ago

Anyone have any ideas or experience in using branches for making a compost bin...along the lines of rustic furniture but for composting instead? I'm thinking of a three bin model but am open to any ideas...especially from anyone who has acutally built one. Thanks

It's not exactly what you're looking for, but there's a photo of a "bird's nest bin" in the gallery of the soils, compost and mulch forum. It's a disposable bin made of pine branches and it looks very cool!
