Weeds and soft prunings. tea bags and coffee grounds, animal manure with straw (not cat or dog), cut flowers, hay, hedge clippings,
You can also add grass cuttings, autumn leaves, cardboard, Paper and straw, however these are slower to break down and with a small composter should only be added in small pieces and quantities in relation to the first list which are ingredients which break down more quickly.
Although other organic items such as meats can be composted, you would need a large high temperature commercial compost pile to do it in. Even weeds require a high temperature compost pile to denature them or you will just be spreading the weeds with the compost but with proper care and with certain weeds, you may be able to compost them in a home pile. This is one of the reasons why some communities are talking about a compost pickup as then not only would more items be compost-able in the commercial compost pile but they could sell the compost to individuals and farmers.
I have some compost. You can put in the following: fruit/ vegetables (uncooked), eggshells, sticks, twigs, leaves, cow/horse manure, worms. The worms will dig around and help break stuff down
All the kitchen waste namely vegetable peels,organic waste like grains, husks,starch of rice,waste of leafy vegetables,, leftover food items .Twigs, branches n leaves of plants,grass, old flower,papers etc can be kept for composting. Make smaller pieces of all these items so that decomposing process can be done faster.But big no to plastic,glass and electronic items.
You can put in the following: fruit/ vegetables (uncooked), eggshells, sticks, twigs, leaves, cow/horse manure, worms.

I just got a new composter and I'm not sure what other waste I can put in it besides fruit and veggie peels and eggshells.
