The Compost Comfort® Composting Bag

BALTIMORE, Md. — Are you concerned about the environment, but tired of traditional composting methods? Fear not. Less Work Gardening Inc. announces a new product that allows residential gardeners to speed up the composting process while actually spending less time doing it. Made in the U.S., these Compost Comfort(R) Compost Bags promote quicker composting through air and moisture – the keys to composting – and makes aeration as easy as 1-2-3. The fabric is air permeable and also allows water in when needed.

The Compost Comfort(R) Compost Bags come in two sizes to fit different needs. The medium-sized one holds nine gallons and fits into most commercial bins, tumblers and kitchen containers. The large size holds 18 gallons and is for larger containment needs.

If the bag is going to be used as a compost-storage bag, the medium size is recommended because the large bag can get heavy. However, if used as a composting bag, the large bag will weigh less since it will be filled with a mix of green and brown material; when the compost is finished, the bulk will be approximately half the initial amount. The medium bag, being half the capacity, will weigh even less. It all depends on specific composting needs.

The compost bags come with a 10-year warranty against UV-deterioration, but Wong adds that, “The bags will actually last must longer than that, so we will not realize much income from replacement bags.”
