Summary "Organic Gardener's Composting" by Steve Solomon is a practical guide on composting techniques written in the late 20th century. This book discusses the importance of composting in sustainable gardening, focusing on transforming organic materials into nutrient-rich humus that enhances soil fertility. It addresses both serious food gardeners and casual composters, offering insights into various strategies that cater to different gardening needs. The opening of the book provides a foreword highlighting the author's influence on regional gardening, particularly in the maritime Northwest, along with personal reflections on the evolution of composting practices. Solomon introduces key concepts such as composting's role in ecological awareness and the process of decomposition, demystifying terms often misunderstood by gardeners. He emphasizes the accessibility of composting regardless of one’s experience level or space limitations and lays the groundwork for understanding the interdependent relationship between composting, soil health, and plant growth. The initial chapters clarify definitions and set the stage for practical techniques that will follow, ensuring that readers are equipped with a solid foundation for successful composting.
