Community Compost and Home Compost Consultation
About Me
Healthy Soil, Healthy Plants, Healthy Planet
I am passionate about healthy soil and the power of compost to regenerate the dirt into soil. I have spent time in Canada working on organic co-operative farms using compost as our primary soil amendment. In the past fews years I've been experimenting with different forms of compost and learning about the fascinating world that exists in our soils. Transforming food waste into fertile compost is one small way to mitigate climate change, sequester carbon and foster the intricate soil ecosystem under our feet.

Food waste makes up a third of Aotearoa landfills. When food is put into the landfill it breaks down very slowly emitting methane, the most potent of greenhouse gases.
