Beehive Compost Bins
The Beehive Compost Bin is an attractive alternative to oversized eyesore
plastic bins and to an untidy and unwieldy compost heap. The Beehive
Compost Bin is so called because it actually resembles a real hive with
bees. Based on the famous Edwardian design by The Reverend William Broughton
Carr, the beehive compost bin is extremely functional while adding a
charming feature to the average garden. Overall it is an attractive composter
which combines an imaginative natural design with practicality and style.
Composition:
The Beehive compost bin is made from treated timber from conservation
and managed forests. This timber has been pressure-treated with timber
preservatives to prevent rot and insect damage. It stacks in four individual
sections which allow air circulation and has an opening section in the
base for easy removal of prepared compost. The Beehive Compost Bin measure
26" by 26" with a height of over 36" and has an internal capacity of
around 260 litres. The gabled roof hinges right back for loading and
leaves both your hands free for loading. Usually it has a removable panel
at the bottom to access the lower layers of prepared compost. Alternatively,
its individual sections can be lifted off to get at the compost. It comes
ready assembled for use.
Advantages:
1. It is ideal for the average garden because not every garden is large
enough to accommodate a compost heap. Where space is at a premium, the
beehive compost bin is a perfect appendage to convert kitchen and garden
waste into invaluable compost.
2. Furthermore, the beehive compost bin is all-purpose, and may be used
for storing garden tools, to hide an unsightly waste bin or as a log
shelter.
3. By being sited on bare earth, the beehive compost bin also allows
worms and other microorganisms to enter from the ground and speed up
microbial activity in the compost.
4. The beehive compost bin looks so good you can give it pride of place
in your garden; it can be sited anywhere in your garden.
The traditional beehive compost bin makes a good investment for long-term
usage as compost creator. This home-made compost is one of the best fertilizers
for your garden and it is free with the beehive compost bin which allows
the waste to break down faster. So recycle, reduce and reuse your household
and garden waste with the beehive compost bin.
