OK, I’ve no idea if you would really class this as a compendium, but with “Costa” & “Compost” to be used in the same title, I had to come up with something!

I hope you’ve been catching up with Costa’s Garden Odyssey on SBS of late. This guy’s characterful enthusiasm really makes this the best gardening / environment show on TV by a long shot. If you’ve missed the episodes, you can watch them online direct from the SBS TV website.

On one of the recent shows, Costa showed, with the help of horticulturist and teacher Ali Rutherford how to make the perfect compost. As you might have worked out from my Goals Update post, I like compost, so any information I can find about how to make a better compost is always welcome.

Fortunately, if you’re not able to see the show, or absorb information better in the printed form (or on screen form), Costa’s website has a fact sheet with all the relevant info. You can find it here: Costa’s Compost 101. (Hey, maybe that would’ve been a better title?!)

Well, good luck with your composting efforts, I’m off to give mine a bit of a stir… why not let me know how yours is going in the comments?
