The new year cycle approaches, and what will it bring? What green commitment will we pledge to ourselves?. These are questions we should all ask ourselves, not silly goals realistic ones,a little less packaging,fewer food miles, they are realistic goals.
 I have the job of keeping a garden looking good and with a history of great cottage tradition, there is also a compost system to set up, with very strict instructions no smell no flies very low maintenance, and no rats.
 So an open bin could only be used for leaves , my thoughts are towards a HOTBIN  although cost could be  an issue, thoughts ?
