Description

The wide world of composting is the topic of today’s podcast with Alessandro Vitale. At his home in London, he doesn’t stick to just one method. Instead, he vermicomposts, bokashi composts, and several methods in-between. He even buries some of his scraps directly in the garden.  Epic Gardening Shop Homepage: https://growepic.co/3RI7ZDj Botanical Interests Shop Homepage: https://growepic.co/3t733O3 Book Collection Page: https://growepic.co/3ZEbNYg EG Homesteading Book: https://growepic.co/3PyGrh4 Learn More: 25+ Plants That You Can Regrow From Your Kitchen Scraps Connect With Alessandro Vitale: I’m Alessandro Vitale also known as “Spicy Moustache”. I’m based in London and I have been an Urban farmer for almost a decade and content creator for the past 2 year, producing educational content about gardening and maximising the production of food in a small space (i grow my own food in 8×5 metres of space and recently started a 10x11 meter plot of land), foraging wild food, natural remedies and how to use every part of your fruit and vegetables with a zero waste approach for a more sustainable life even in the middle of the city. My goal is to educate people not only to grow their own food and re-create the missing link with nature but also reduce their impact on the environment.
