Adding compost to your garden provides essential nutrients for plant growth, it helps to fertilise soil and creates a healthy environment for plants and crops.
Compost plays a crucial role towards building a sustainable environment for future generations. By composting food waste you are diverting organic waste from landfill and reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the environment. Around 8% of greenhouse gases heating the planet are caused by food waste - if food waste was a country, it would be the third biggest emitter of greenhouse gases after USA and China.
It's easy to build your own compost or worm farm to recycle your organic waste at home. You can purchase a purpose-built worm farming kit or there are also many inexpensive options to get you started including
- outdoor bins, with or without ventilation and ground holes
- tumblers
- open enclosures
- heaps
- indoor / bench top composters
