What is a "compost pile"?
A compost pile is a collection of organic waste, such as food scraps, yard trimmings, and leaves, that break down over time to create nutrient-rich soil. The materials are left to decompose naturally, aided by microorganisms, insects, and air. Compost piles are usually kept in a designated area of a garden or yard, often in a bin or pile to control the process. Once fully decomposed, the compost can be used to improve the soil in gardens, providing plants with essential nutrients and promoting healthy growth.
Example
The gardener added kitchen scraps to the compost pile to reduce waste and create rich soil for the garden.
The compost pile in the corner of the yard was filled with food waste, grass clippings, and coffee grounds.
After raking the leaves, he threw them into the compost pile to help them break down naturally.
