We've got guinea pigs (stay with me here), which between them generate about 40l of spoilt bedding (sawdust, hay, newspaper, poo) a week. I'd like to make use of this.
I understand that this is 'brown' for the purposes of composting, and I can't generate enough green waste to balance it out. Is there anything else I can do with it? Try and use it for mulch?
That's quite a large regular ammount to get rid of. Do you have any neighbours with large lawns or can you join a community garden group to get a soure of nitrogen? Coffee and brewing grain etc is nitrogen as well if I recall so any local cafes or breweries that could help you out?
