Organics
New NSW policies are being introduced to keep organic waste out of landfill are coming to NSW.
Schools will be part of this community action to value organics resources.
Food waste avoidance
Let's keep edible food out of the garbage bin! Have a look inside your bin, nearly 10% could be discarded edible food - so what can we do about it?
Composting and worm farming
Setting up composting or worm farming systems at school provides practical learning opportunities for students, reduces your waste to landfill and makes quality fertiliser for your school gardens.
Large volumes on-site processing
Can technology help address organic waste challenges? Some schools are giving it a try, but there are cost, energy and space limitations. Make sure you get your sorting systems sorted first.
FOGO at schools
Can your Waste Service Provider support Food Organics and Garden Organics (FOGO) collections?
