The first is placed outside and the sun speeds the composting process. The second is inside and red worms help turn the old food into compost. Sadly, I don't have a yard but when I get one (someday!) I will for sure try this out. For more info you can check out this website that my brother-in-law made about composting.

Does anyone else out there compost already? What type of bins do you have? Any extra tips for us? Anyone have composting questions?
