Rather than making compost heaps, if you want fast compost full of fat red worms, dig a trench and gradually fill it back with vegetable peelings, cardboard boxes, newspapers, eggshells, tissues and so on. Pile back the soil on top of each lot, and protect it from diggers. And obviously don't put flour or grease or anything cooked into it.

Do it in thirds with a two-metre-long one-metre-wide trech. It'll take around six weeks to have perfect compost from the first third.
