It is our desire to see every household and business in South Africa turn all their food waste into compost Throwing away mixed waste - biodegradable with non-biodegradable - produces a toxic liquid, leachate, which poisons groundwater and creates greenhouse gasses. More and more people are wanting to conserve re-usable materials and grow their own veggies as well. Why have your food waste removed and taken to a landfill dump site where it will eventually emit methane gas - which is 22x more harmful than carbon dioxide? Composting home and garden green wastes fit in with nature’s cycles.
