Ifabuela could make caldo out of leftover bones, you can make compost out of your veggie scraps.

What you can toss

Tortilla bits, fruit peels, veggie stems, cafecito grounds

What to skip

Meat, dairy, anything that smells funkier than Tía Lupe’s chisme

Señora Tips:

Keep a countertop container for easy scrap-saving

Layer browns (dry leaves) and greens (scraps) like you layer your skincare

Turn it weekly, just like your tortillas

 

Your soil’s gonna love you for it.

Share it with your friends!
