Where To Put Compost Bin?

We have a patch of brownfield site with trees/bushes on it as well as grassy spaces. What is best to site a wooden compost bin? We are growing veg in our raised beds and have had already one summer’s crops. Can you also recommend what our compost mix should contain for best outcome? Sorry no photos available.

You need an open area with good drainage to site your compost bin, so the grassy area would be ideal. Partial shade is best, too.
