About the Programme
In Singapore, more than 600,000 tonnes of food waste are incinerated annually, generating greenhouse gases. Composting of food waste is one of the habits we can develop to slow down climate change.
This 2-hour workshop will introduce participants to bokashi composting and how to upcycle food waste into compost using Effective Microorganisms technology.
Participants will need to bring the following:
1) Fresh food waste (500g to 1kg)
- Fruit peels, vegetable parts, rice, bread, noodles, egg shells etc are suitable. (Avoid hard fruit peels or vegetable parts such as durian husks or coconut shells)
- All food waste must be clean and does not contain any liquids (eg. oil, soup, gravy)
- All food waste must be cut into small pieces (eg. smaller than 1cm)
2) Cutting tools for food waste (scissors, food chopper)
3) Spoon/spatula for mixing
4) Newspapers
5) Gloves (optional)
No food waste will be provided for participants
