Healthy soil supports plant growth, retains water efficiently, and provides essential nutrients, making it the foundation of both productive gardens and resilient ecosystems – and essential for addressing climate change and food security. Heart of BS13 are turning local food waste into nutritious compost, which they use to improve the soil at their sustainable flower farm. They collect food waste from local houses, businesses, and even schools!

On this Essential Composting course, they will guide you through the process of turning food waste into compost, helping you understand the science behind decomposition, the key elements of an effective compost system, and practical techniques for maintaining a healthy compost pile.
