Compost
rich, moist soil composted from food scraps / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Compost is a type of fertilizer that is made from rotting plants. It is easy and cheap to make, as all it really requires is vegetable waste. The vegetable waste is broken down by bacteria (germs), and made into compost.
