Go green.
We honestly didn't know compost bins could be so pretty. This simple and discreet wooden container sits on a kitchen counter to remind you to set aside banana peels, coffee grounds and egg shells, for transfer into municipal green bins or your own garden compost. The box is crafted of salvaged walnut with a stainless steel pan and lid. It keeps messy trash separate, helps us stay environmentally responsible, and spruces up our countertop—what more could we want? And now it's available in a new petite size for more counter space.
Due to the unique nature of each piece of wood, your compost bin will show varied coloring and grain. The piece is not stained, just oiled.
