Te Tai Tokerau: Compost Connection

Picture
Compost Connection is EcoSolutions’ residential composting programme. The aim of the program is to support households in Northland who would like to start composting or are already doing some but want to take it to the next level.
The program is completely free (thanks to funding from MFE) with participants making a small contribution to the compost bin system of their choice. We will help you to choose the right system for your household situation based on your waste audit data.
Participation in the program involves:
  • Attending two workshops with your mentor  
    • The first workshop will be in-depth composting-covering worm farming, bokashi and hot composting
    • Additional workshops and/or mentoring depending on the individual needs of the group
  • Completing two waste audits, one at the beginning and one at the end of the program.
  • Setting up your compost system at home and starting to compost!
  • Having your mentor available for support for the first 8 weeks of your composting journey 
We will also be supporting a small number of community hubs to set up drop off and pick up services for hot composting. if your community garden or venue wants to apply to be a community hub, please contact us
