Composting & Gardening
Did you know that up to 40% of household waste can be composted. If organic waste is sent to landill it produces a gas called methane which contributes to global warming.

Our wormeries can be put next to the kitchen door, simply throw all your scraps into it, and watch your little friends munch away. Flat or mansion, town or country it doesn’t matter where you live - you will have room for a wormery.
Green Policies
According to a study by the Waste and Resources Action Programme (Wrap), households throw away about a third of the food they buy. About half of the 6.7 million tonnes of food thrown in the bin each year is edible and the rest comprises waste such as peelings and bones. Food accounts for 19% of domestic waste, cooked food is more likely to be thrown away than raw ingredients and fruit and vegetables are the most common uncooked foods to be discarded. All this waste then gets taken to landfill sites around the UK which are not only nearly full, but also account for a huge percentage of methane emissions (one of the greenhouse gases) that pollute our atmosphere. Worms have been recognised for their amazing ability to turn any organic material into a valuable soil fertiliser called vermicompost.
