PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Kate Flood is happiest when she's teaching people about compost, reading about it, or elbow deep in the stuff. She's a compost nerd and sustainability educator, and she's on a mission to help others step-up their household waste management. From her home on the south coast of New South Wales, the teacher and mum of three busy dirt-babies spreads the word on 'garden gold' via Instagram, TikTok, and workshops for councils, community gardens and businesses. Kate has inspired her family, friends, and ever-growing online community to think about the small actions they can take daily to stem the climate crisis and make composting fun.

People's Friend magazine 'For a clear explanation of the C:N ratio, as well as everything else you've ever wanted to know about compost, I highly recommend The Compost Coach, by Kate Flood.
