"I use the Compost Crank in my home, community, and church gardens. It aerates the compost contents better than a pitchfork or shovel, and it's easier on the back" 

Ellen Kirby
Director of Brooklyn GreenBridge, an outreach gardening program through the Brooklyn Botanic Garden in 
New York City.



Making the world a better, more beautiful, & less cluttered place one crank at a time.




















Shouldn't you enjoy everything 
in your garden?


Is tending your compost bin an unpleasant 

chore that you put off until tomorrow? The

 Compost Crank® will change your mind. 

It's simply the easiest way to turn your compost. The design makes this tool incomparable to any other. Really, it's effortless. Just crank in and pull out without turning to mix and aerate. You could choose to have more bins because it is so easy to maintain them. A few minutes light work each week aerating your compost with this tool, and you can make dark, rich compost fast. It's sized to easily reach every corner of your bin


It's a people & bin friendly tool. 

It works with any size or age person, with any strength or ability, in any bin or pile.

Our organization picked up 25,000 gallons of waste at restaurants and kitchens throughout Lexington in 2012 and we turned every bit of that (while keeping our backs straight!) with the help of Lotech's Compost Crank. This tool is great, and I recommend it to anyone with a pile to turn."
