The Composting Apparatus will regenerate that which is no longer immediately useful into something life giving and abundant -- all natural, all organic fertilizer! With a Composting Apparatus, you can compost leaf piles to use as fertilizer later on -- isn't that handy!

Compost was introduced in ''The Sims 2: Seasons'' and allowed Sims to produce free homemade fertilizer for [[Gardening#The Sims 2: Seasons|crops]].
Compost bins can be purchased in the "Garden Center" section of [[build mode]], and cost §150. Compost bins initially start out empty, with 30 available units. If a compost bin with available space is on the lot, clicking on a pile of trash, [[newspaper]], an existing crop, or a deceased garden plant will provide the option "Compost", which will add the item to the nearest compost bin. Different items will take up different units in the bin. Every two units of compostable material will produce one unit of fertilizer. If there is only one unit of compostable material inside the bin, no fertilizer will be produced until more compostables are added. Each unit of fertilizer takes 6 hours to produce, and one unit of fertilizer fertilizes one [[garden plot]].
