Envirocycle Backyard Compost Tumbler

One of the composters that I got to see during the Home Composting Workshop was the Envirocycle Backyard Compost Tumbler.  It made me laugh when I realized my perception of its shape had been distorted by my wide-screen monitor which makes everything look wide. Other than that, it was as I expected – small enough to have on my porch, although bigger and more obvious than the Worm Factory 360. It turned easily, but there wasn’t much in it and it seemed that it would do the job of keeping critters out. I could definitely see using this if I had room for two composters on my porch or in my backyard. Maybe at my next house!

Before I decided to buy the Worm Factory 360, I was seriously considering the Envirocycle Composter.  It’s a small compost tumbler that can be used in the backyard or on the back porch. If my porch was a little bit larger, I probably would have chosen to go with this tumbler.  In fact if I find that my worms don’t keep up with my food waste, I may buy the Envirocycle next summer and use both. The reviews on Amazon are very strong and the price is comparable to the Worm Factory. It will keep critters out and make compost fairly quickly, which works for me.

I have found worms to be very easy so far, but if you’re not quite up to dealing with a worm composter, this is another nice option for home and urban composters.
