A Superb Composter.......on Wheels Even

We just received some new composters for use as holiday gifts. While there many tumbling type composters on the market this one, (from Compostumbler), is different. First off it is not black.While black is the ruling color for composting bins I often wonder if it gets too hot inside an enclosed bin on a hot summer day. The rest of the year black is a fine color for bins since solar gain is less during spring an autumn. Those times of year a compost maker (you the gardener !) can use all the solar gain one could get in this cloudy section of New York.But what about those hot summer days when compost activity is at its' peak? Could a 90* day cause the inside of an enclosed tumbler to "burn" those important soil microbes? Perhaps. The Compostumbler is a light green color with extraordinary well designed ventilation. Screens are built in to the walls instead of the normal slits or slots on most bins.The Compostumbler is also equipped with WHEELS making transpoting compost easy. The model is named "Back Porch" due to the ingenious inclusion of wheels. You fill it up neat the "BACK PORCH" and when the compost is done simply wheel it to the garden.The door on the bin is hinged. Many plastic tumbling models have a sliding door that sticks and expands when hot making it hard to slide open. The Compostumbler latches and swings down allowing easy access to the inner chamber.Another nice feature is there is no rod running through the center of the barrel making extracting finished compost with a scoop diificult at best. The door also removes. Nothing can get in the way of your removing the compost. (Except maybe a fellow gardener!)Makes a great gift to yourself or the gardener on your list!
