Compost bays at WeGrowOrganic

Three-bay systems for continuous compost

Compost bays are the workhorse of a serious garden — a set of open timber or brick bays that let you build, turn and cure compost in a continuous flow.

We design and build 2- and 3-bay systems sized to your household or estate, so there's always a fresh pile, a maturing pile and a finished pile ready to use.

How it works
  1. 01

    Build the first pile in bay one — layer greens and browns.

  2. 02

    When bay one is full, turn it into bay two.

  3. 03

    Start a fresh pile in bay one.

  4. 04

    Turn bay two into bay three when the next pile is ready.

  5. 05

    Harvest finished compost from bay three.

  6. 06

    Repeat — a continuous supply, all year round.
