Workshop Details

This fun, informative, hands-on practical workshop teaches you how to hold food waste in an airtight 'bokashi bucket,' to transform it into nutrient rich soil conditioner. An ideal composter for people with limited space.

Bokashi in detail

The Bokashi composting bucket transforms kitchen waste into a nutrient rich soil conditioner.

• The Bokashi bucket is a medium sized storage container that stores your kitchen scraps such as vegetable/fruit peelings, meat and more.
• The organic material once placed inside the airtight bucket helps break down your kitchen scraps for several weeks and without the odour of traditional composting.
• The contents can be dug straight into your pot plants or into your garden to improve the soil.
• The Bokashi mix can be used to enhance your existing composting system too. The Bokashi mix increases decomposition by approximately 66%.
