Answer 1

If you are a gardener compost is wonderful stuff!

You put all your plant trimmings, dead plants, kitchen food waste (including tea bags!) into a pile in a far corner of your garden.

Keep the pile topped up regularly and after a few months the stuff at the bottom rots down to a brownish, odourless, fiberous stuff that dug lightly into your soil is wonderful for your plants.

Answer 2

compost is mixture of natural organic items that will rot:  egg shells, banana peels, skins from oranges, apples, potatoes, etc. plus tea & coffee grounds, leaves, etc...  Avoid meat/blood.  Otherwise, stuff that grew from trees, bushes, egg shells from chickens, from beans (coffee), vegetable skins.  Leaves from trees, etc..

Organic items that rot = compost.

Natural compost enrichens soil for larger, healthier vegetation.
