ReplyDeleteI would LOVE this! Been wanting one for so long... been using a cracked rubbermaid bin. Being green sure is hard when you're low on cash, and this would be amazing for the new garden space I've acquired for this summer!!! *fingers crossed* :-D
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance!!!
This looks great! jessjgh1 at gmail.com
ReplyDeleteJust started trying to compost so this would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteI was going to say that I never win---you know---but that would be too tacky when the prize is a compost bin.
ReplyDeleteThis is for my wife.
ReplyDeleteI'd love this. One reason I don't have a compost pile is that I just can't take staring at it.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to start composting! This would help so much towards convincing hubby we should do it!
ReplyDeleteOh man, I could really use this!
ReplyDeleteThis would get used to death at our house.
ReplyDeleteWow, you do have great giveaways! Please enter me :)
ReplyDeletePlease enter me. I've been wanting to try composting. This would be a great way to start.
ReplyDeleteNice! I would love to add this to my yard for next years garden. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI sure could use the composter!!!! Have tried and failed before-I think this could really help :)
ReplyDeleteFriday will probably mark the annual win my balls giveaway, after I go to the flower and garden show tomorrow. Cool giveaway this
ReplyDeleteAnother great giveaway item - one we'd LOVE to win!!!
ReplyDeletei would like to be randomly chosen for this prize. please feel free to randomly choose me.
ReplyDeleteI really need something like this!
ReplyDeletePick me! I could use this.

ReplyDeleteSuch great giveaways! I feel greedy!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, you have some fantastic giveaways. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWell, heck! Another great giveaway I must enter. I've tried composting in a pile, and it never works for me (I'm a bad compost mom).
ReplyDeleteso great--I've been looking for an outdoor composter!
ReplyDeleteI made one for myself, but I'd love to have a commercial one J. Walt Layne- The City Homesteader
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful giveaways this week. This composter would definitely get used here.
ReplyDeleteI need this SO badly!! We are putting our house on the market and I have to get rid of my "unsightly" compost pile!
ReplyDeleteThanks!!
Wow, awesome giveaways! How do you do it? Please count me in for a chance at this one. Thanks!
ReplyDelete-Kate
Love all of these giveaways!
ReplyDeleteI have tried so many composters with minimal results. The tumblers are awful. This one looks like it might do the trick.
ReplyDeletekirstencorsaro@mac.com
Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteOur old composting setup is on it's last legs. I sure would like to win this one!
ReplyDeletethanks for the chance...!!

ReplyDeleteManuela
Thanks for the contest. Please let the random number generator favor me in this event. :)
ReplyDeleteI have kitchen scrap garbage just waiting for that composter. My fingers are crossed!
ReplyDeleteHave been wanting one of these! You can never have too many composters :-)
ReplyDeleteI can always use another composter!
ReplyDeleteGreat giveaways...thanks!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway! I've been perusing the seed catalogs, lusting for a composter!
ReplyDeleteWhile my upcycled pallets work fine--the neighbors are not liking it. This one would be great.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance to win.
Oh, yay!!! Thanks for another chance at a great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis would be great for our family. We just started composing with a rubber maid tote.-aida
ReplyDeleteLove composting or chicken feeding, whatever the case may be.
ReplyDeleteAs a true Urban Homesteader I had to give up my compost pile when my neighbors started complaining. It didn't smell, and we had no rodents, but they all claimed to be seeing rats. Mind you no evidence of rats, but hey that's the way it works in the City. I prefer direct compost methods to piles, but I would be willing to give a composter a try. :)
ReplyDeleteOur compost pile attracts raccons, and I'd rather not have them around- this enclosed solution is great!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway!
ReplyDeleteThis would be great. It would be more attractive than my "compost trash can" we use currently. :)
ReplyDeleteOur homemade barrel composter bit the dust last fall. We are looking into new, sturdier ones...this looks interesting...
ReplyDeleteComposting is on my list to get start this year.
ReplyDeleteHoley swiss cheese, batman, you are having some seriously drool-worthy giveaways this week. Please enter me into the composter one!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great giveaway. Since the squirrels have eaten large holes in my stacking composter, and are trying to do the same to the spinner, I could use another one. Sigh me UP!
ReplyDeleteI've composted a lot over the years but I've never tried one of these self contained units.
ReplyDeleteAnother wonderful giveaway. This is an awesome compost bin. Would love to have it!
ReplyDeleteI could use that!
ReplyDeleteAnother great giveaway - Thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteSounds great! Please enter my name in the drawing. :)
ReplyDeletePlease enter me! Very nice composter - nicer than what I'm using now. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI am definitely interested - we compost as a group and need additional space/place to compost
ReplyDeletei would love to win this!
ReplyDeleteCount me in on the drawing!!
ReplyDeleteThis would be great in my new garden space!
ReplyDeleteFor the love of all that's holy, I would love this! Then my husband wouldn't be tempted to just toss perfectly good leftovers simply because he hates our tiny little compost jar.
ReplyDeletepick me! pick me!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try this!
ReplyDeleteWow! I love your giveaways this week! Throw my name in the hat, please.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have it!

ReplyDeleteOh gosh, please pick me internet Gods. I was just telling my husband we needed a different composting method.
ReplyDeleteoh, right now we have a giant ugly pile in the back yard. it's hard to get to in the snow, so we have a bucket on the front porch. this would be MUCH nicer.
ReplyDeleteEnter me, please! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks!
I have a tiny bucket that is perpetually overflowing (at least I can say I am eating/drinking my veg these days) and annoying my husband. This might annoy him more, but I am eager to try it!
ReplyDeleteComposter would be a great mother's day gift!

I have a friend who would love this so I am going to enter for her.
ReplyDeleteThis is perfect! :) I would love to have something like this. I keep putting off composting because we're renting & the neighborhood is not conducive to it, but I get so bummed when I see all the things going in the trash that I KNOW would make great compost. :) You do have some amazing giveaways! :)
ReplyDeleteWow - the giveaways are awesome - love this too!
ReplyDeleteI'm dying to have one of these. Another fun project that I can get my kid involved with!

ReplyDeleteAwesome! just found this blog
ReplyDeleteOMG I've been wanting to get a compost for quite some time now...but ya know, if I were to win (setting the intention that this manifests), I would give it to my mom because she's been wanting to learn about composting and I think this would steer her in that direction (along with encouraging and inspiring her to grow her garden finally and start to live a more organic, healthy lifestyle). Thank you for offering this giveaway! :o)
