Uber Indoor Composting by Nature Mill

Wow. This low power (10W) indoor composter looks great. It would be an awesome addition for the ecoubanist looking to minimize the amount of waste in their kitchen. Nature Mill Indoor Composter

I love my worm composter Worm Factorybut it can’t keep up with the amount of organic waste that Lisa and I produce. The Nature Mill is pricy ($359 - $399) but there is volume discounts at quantities of 3 and 12. If anyone wants to go in on a volume order, leave a comment and when we reach 12, I’ll organize the order.

Alternatively, they are coming to Canada soon and available over the web at Home Depot. Nature Mill wasn’t sure how much the retail cost would be.

The $400 - $500 price tag will be a deterrent for all but the most dedicated. I’m all for local production (it’s made in the US) but I think the price barrier will keep the Nature Mill from being widely adopted. Perhaps we’ll see a made in China knock-off for 1/4 the price down the road or some government incentives to push the price down. Then it will be an option for the average household.
