FoodCycle

A local community composting project based in St Michaels created with the aim of finding a composting solution for those residents without the capability of home composting (i.e. Gardens) and to divert as much separately collected biodegradable kitchen and garden waste as possible from landfill. We aim to do this by: 

• Promoting local composting and waste reduction by attending events, providing advice, and giving presentations on local composting within community.

• Provide households without the ability to home compost (active gardens) with a home compost bin within our project area

• Organise a collection system to get the household compost to final destination

• Provide an education and advice service for people  who signed up to the scheme

• Increase community participation in and knowledge of composting and need for recycling
