Why compost?

The Growth Pyramid

By composting our food waste, we are simply helping the natural process of decomposition. Living material dies and the nutrients are recycled into the soil to be used by plants to help them grow.

Compost:

  • Provides natural food for plants
  • Improves the structure of the soil
  • Helps to retain water in the soil for the plants to drink

Don’t Waste The Food Waste.

When we use our food waste to make compost, we are not only providing important food for plants in the soil but we are also helping to reduce the huge amount of waste that goes into landfill sites where it lies and rots along with all the other rubbish.
