on Wednesday 31st March. The event starts at 19:30.
Compost Club UK is a vision for a nationwide network of human-scale community composting projects to regenerate our soils, our communities and our bio-regions. It is a scalable social and ecological community project that enables people to participate in ecosystem regeneration by digging where they stand.
CoResist host Thomas Daniell, the co-founder & director of Old Tree Brewery & Compost Club in Brighton, for this online presentation and Q&A, ahead of the launch of Compost Club Bristol.
This introductory session highlights how the science & best practice of creating full biology compost efficiently in cities can eliminate nutrients being sent to landfill – turning rubbish into robins & ‘waste’ into wildlife, whilst reducing carbon emissions and stopping the production of more harmful greenhouse gases than CO2.
The session will also tell the origin story of Compost Club and how it was launched in Brighton a year ago and now has 80 members, upcycling 3 tons of food waste per month into over 20 tons of biodiversity compost a year. CoResist are working with Compost Club to replicate the project here in Bristol, and are exploring how much demand there is for compost production in various wards of the city.
The talk will conclude with an invitation to join the growing movement of Bristol citizens using their food waste to regenerate our local growing spaces. Participants will be invited to join Compost Club Bristol - the new start-up regenerative community and collaborate to produce living, healthy compost that will nourish both soil and soul.
As with all CoResist events, 'Pay what you feel' (donation) tickets are available - no-one excluded through lack of funds.
