Why recycle your organic waste?

Peels, coffee grounds, fruit and vegetable scraps… this isn't trash: it's a resource. In the trash can, it gets hauled away, burned, or buried. In a worm composter, it turns back into fertile soil.

Less trashLighter trash bags, fewer garbage trucks, and less waste to burn or bury.

Free fertilizerWorms turn your scraps into vermicompost and “worm tea,” perfect for your plants and vegetable garden.

Living soilOrganic matter goes back to the soil instead of being destroyed: nature's own cycle, right at home.

How do we calculate this figure?

Nobody weighs their peels every day! So our counter is an estimate, based on our actual sales and official figures. It works in 4 steps:

A conservative calculation: products bought elsewhere aren't counted, a household that stops is no longer counted, and the figure is recalculated every month with our latest sales.
