Composting; It's the easiest way to dramatically cut down the waste you send to landfill AND supercharge your garden but we wanted to make sure we were doing it right so we invited Leo Murray, founder and director of WhyWaste - the company that hires out worm farms to homes and businesses to eat through your food waste.

In this episode we find out that biowaste (which could go to compost) accounts for more than half of the total volume of waste going to landfill from our homes (for society at large, it's about a third). This has a hugely detrimental effect on the environment at large and is completely avoidable. We discuss the timely concept of using food waste (and worms) to produce your own fertilizer for growing food in your back garden and the importance of community resilience. We also talk about the concept of product stewardship (or kaitiaki) and Leo's parties with a purpose; Regenerate!
