Does anyone have a good method for dealing with plant debris? I’m thinking about things like stems from plants, or even just pruned bits. I don’t have a place to compost effectively. My normal method for woody debris is to cut it to little pieces with garden shears, and for leafy stuff to just let it dry out and crunch it up. After, I’ll just stick it in the bottom of a pot that I’m going to put a new plant in. It gets a little broken down, but not as well as I’d like, and I can only do it when I have a new plant to pot, so I end up with a random pile of stuff that sits around for a while.
I wish I had like a tiny woodchipper or something.

Thrift store food processor once dry, use to ammend soil.
You know, I have a powerful 14 cup food processor that I got at the thrift store for super cheap. I actually got rid of my 10 cup, that was also really nice and from the thrift store because I didn’t have a use for 2. I wish I had thought of that.
I’m not sure how well it would handle the woodier stems, but for most stuff, I think it would work great.
