Seems like quite a lot of heapery at first - but I'm staggered how
quickly they fill up. (And then shrink again).
I was quite surprised by the article (I think the one on no-dig veg
beds) in the Garden this month which suggested that most gardens were
unable to produce sufficient compost. I sometimes feel that the main
product of my garden is compost, and the veg, flowers etc are merely
by-products.
I can relate to that :-) I produce of the order of a ton a year,
from a total area of about a thousand square yards. My guess is
that the remark applies to people who use only things like worm
bins, on which you cannot chuck everything.
