It was time to harvest my worm castings, so I was slicing and cutting cardboard the other night. My 20 year old son was making suggestions to make it easier. I told him I was thinking about buying a shredder. Long story short he found and fixed my parents old 8 sheet paper shredder. My husband and son said it's a cheap quality and won't last. I could care less, it's free and cutting cardboard was actually fun instead of time consuming and painful for my hands. I love it. Not only did it fill the worm bin, now I can shred cardboard and paper as we get it. I will just put it in the
compost. It helps me keep the house neater, will give me more compost, I can use it in the worm bin, shred documents with private information, and am using something most people would have sent to the dump. If that's not a win I don't know what is. As thrilled as I am with my shredder, I'm incredibly grateful to have a husband and son who can fix just about anything. It never fails to amaze and impress me. Yep the shredder is my new favorite garden tool.
