Description
This is a compost project in Curanipe. We collect organic material from different restaurant and neighbors and form composting piles. Two times a week we turn them around and harvest them if necessary, then we sell a natural fertilizer without any chemicals in the process.
Also in the same terrain we are constructing a Demonstrative Center, where applying techniques bases on Permaculture, Agroforestry and Agroecology. All this because we want to educate people around about the reuse of waste and also that a new type of agriculture is possible!
