apartment composting?
My roommate and I produce a fair amount of produce scraps, and I'd love to have a compost bin. We do have a little bit of space outside in the shade where I could put a small container, but it would have to be closer to 5 gal bucket than garbage can size, and not smell or attract too many bugs because people would be walking right by it on a regular basis. Has anyone tried this on a small scale? How practical is it? Any suggestions for containers? I'm in California so we have a mild climate and I'm sure I could find someone to occasionally take the completed compost for use in a garden.
