Sifter Screen – Attach this specially designed screen to the opening of your ComposTumbler to unload a finer, more crumbly compost. Great for making your own potting soil, or a finer mulch for flower borders and shrubs.

Protective Cover – This custom-made cover protects your ComposTumbler from snow, ice and harsh elements. It’s made of heavy-duty, weatherproof green vinyl to last for years of use.

Grower’s Tip:
The Original model is designed for customers that want the benefits of quick composting (instead of the slow pile method), and regularly accumulate 5 or 6 trash bags (up to 168 gallons) of organic material every few weeks.
