Urban Leaves India: COMPOST-YOUR KITCHEN-WASTE MINI WORKSHOP : 24TH FEBRUARY 2019

COMPOST-YOUR KITCHEN-WASTE MINI WORKSHOP : 24TH FEBRUARY 2019

We kicked off our yearly Mini-Workshop Series this month, for beginners wishing to embark on the journey of growing their own food in limited urban spaces. The workshops are all inter-connected and participants would benefit from attending all of them. 

We now present a Compost-Your-Kitchen-Waste Mini-Workshop where you will learn the practicals of composting with a low-cost kit that can be put together at home. 

Change the way you look at veggie scraps generated in your kitchen ... a great resource and not a discard ... and start composting your kitchen waste.  Many of us have begun composting with all green intentions at heart and then given up halfway, due to not being able to deal with few problems associated with the process - offensive smell, fruit flies, worms, compost becoming yucky with leaked leachate staining floors, to name a few. 

We at Urban Leaves, have worked on simplifying the process for homes.The method endeavours at imitating nature; uses naturally available material and does not use bio-enzymes or worms. If followed to the detail, it promises to fill your senses and your soul with the divine fragrance of rich, earthy compost that pampers your plants and keeps you control of the inputs that go into growing your own food.
