What can you compost?
Once you get your worms up to speed they can process up to 1kg of food waste weekly.
Worms love:
- Fruit and vegetable scraps (e.g. banana peels, apple cores, carrot tops)
- Coffee grounds and tea bags (ensure tea bags are plastic-free)
- Crushed eggshells
- Bread, pasta, or rice (in small amounts)
Avoid in large amounts:
- Citrus, onion, and garlic scraps (these can make the compost too acidic)
- Meat, fish, and dairy (can attract pests and cause odours)
Join the eco-friendly gardening revolution with this easy-to-use worm farm compost bin, at Bluum.co.uk – where sustainability meets style.

FAQs
Are these made in the UK?
Yes! All products are proudly and lovingly made in the UK. This includes ALL of our ranges: bin & recycling storage, bike & scooter shelters, log & firewood storage, compost bins, garden planters, water butt planters, living wall planters, dipping tanks, wildflower products and more.
How do I use the compost bin?
Take off the lid (top tier) of the beehive style compost bin to insert compost materials.
When enough is in there, the stackable design of the beehive style compost bin allows you to mix the compost well:
- Remove the top lid and the tier below, place next to the rest of the compost bin
Fork some of the contents out into the new stack
- Remove another tier, place on top of the new stack, and fork more contents into this
- Mix it up well
- Mix up the remaining contents of the original stack, being careful not to damage the liner in the bottom tier
- Put the mixed contents of the new stack back into the original stack, replacing a tier at a time
- Replace the lid
This will allow the compost to mix well and produce a greater quality of compost, from your beehive style compost bin.
What wood is this made from?
All of the Bluum Original timber products (including bin & recycling storage, bike & scooter shelters, log stores and the beehive style compost bins and garden planters) are made with pressure treated redwood cladding.
This durable material is not only lovely to look at, it is also treated to withstand the wild variety of weather conditions that we face in the UK. It's designed for a very long life outdoors, with little maintenance.
The timber we use is also much thicker and heavier than that used by many other companies in our sector. It's not cheap, but it is made to last. It is also sourced from FSC and PEFC accredited sources.
Your bin & recycling store, bike & scooter shelter, log store, beehive style compost bin or garden planter is already treated so needs no immediate attention. In the future, it is a good idea to add a regular coat of exterior wood preservative, to help it live for even longer.
