I want to compost but something about the process turns me off. The idea that there’s rotting garbage in a plastic bin on my lawn goes against every thing I deem to be “designed” about my life and to a lesser extent, my yard. Enter the KOMPOST – a ceramic cylinder you bury half way into the ground. Dump your organic matter into the top and thanks to the easy access holes, our friends the worms will turn your garbage into rich compost.

So it looks like it stays in place, and the compost distributes naturally underground over time…so if you generate a lot of waste, you’d need more than one…? I didn’t see any specs regarding dimensions other than the 3/4″ holes for the worms…
