I use $10 hardwire mesh (10'x3') from any hardware store for this super easy and fast DIY compost bin. It only takes about two minutes to make and is very simple, requiring no tools. It is the perfect size, about 3 feet in diameter and allows for air to get to it. To make faster compost, use a leaf blower to vacuum up your leaves. This shreds your leaves allowing for faster breakdown. I add red wiggles to the compost to speed the process up. The end product is rich compost that benefits the garden and plants.
