23 buckets and going strong!

Updated: Apr 29, 2022

Our compost varies from 40-50% of our total waste.

Almost 7 months on the road and I have not had to waste a single bucket yet. I will admit, it is getting difficult. Most people on the Sharewaste app do not reply but I generally find a community garden or a nice thickly mulched garden bed where I can bury it discreetly. This is not the best option but I am determined not to waste anything that can be turned back into earthy goodness.


Check out my other posts on composting to learn about how you can compost on the road!
