Mike we had a big ol bag of shredded paper..and never had the time to attempt vermi-composting...which is easy, indoor works good, seen it done in only heavy duty garbage bags..but I don't know the outcome of the "in the bag" compost Are you using just 1 can or the can in a can method? Check out.. Cornell Composting in Schools for their take on a bin..here's the link: compost.css.cornell.edu/garbagecans.html heck red wigglers at the bait shop will work ifin ya wanted to add worms..we just never had the time to get it going... Anyway to make compost is a good thing

I'm keeping it simple. An old garbage can I don't need anymore, a paper shredder that was given to me and my kitchen garbage (which I hate to throw away). Might add some worms later but for now I will see how it goes.Don't want to buy anything I don't have to (tho if I do put worms in I can use them for fishing in the spring).I have the can in my laundry room so when I go down to wash clothes I can turn the compost,add whatever I have, maybe add more paper if it seems too wet. I hope that the high N coffee grounds and the high C paper along with the peels, shells etc. will balance out.--mike
