Food can now be turned into nutrient rich garden compost AND concentrated liquid plant feed. This includes cooked or raw meat, fish or dairy products.

To make it easy, a Kitchen Composter 2 Pack kit is now available which can be kept and used in the kitchen.

Simply place any left over food into the airtight Kitchen Composter, sprinkle in a handful of Bokashi activator and let the micro-organisms begin to compost the waste.

After a few weeks, the contents can be safely transferred to any home composter or dug into the soil. Dilute the leftover liquid, full of beneficial microbes, and use as a plant feed.

The offer kit is available until 31 March 2011 and includes everything you need:

• 2 Kitchen Composters (18 litre) each with a carry handle, air-tight lid, drainage tap, inner drain tray
• 1 scoop
• Full instructions
• 1 kg of Bokashi activator (about 3-4 months' supply)

The Kitchen Composter:

• 18 litres capacity
• H370 mm x D260 mm x W320 mm
• silver with a black lid
• is compact, odour-free and airtight
• is guaranteed for 2 years.

Order on-line from Straight plc at www.essex.composting.com/ or call 0845 130 6090.

The kit costs £25 plus £5 delivery if just the kit is ordered.

Additional supplies of Bokashi Activator can be purchased either at the same time or separately. An extra 1 kg costs £6.50, or you can buy 3 kg for the price of 2 kg at a cost of £13.

Two Kitchen Composters are supplied to allow you to continually collect your food waste whilst one unit is left to ferment.

The Bokashi is made with friendly bacteria which start the composting process off and neutralise any odours.

The leftover liquid is full of beneficial microbes and is perfect for using diluted as a plant feed.
