Weekly food waste collections from our 51 residents. Daily collections for our 18 local businesses, all done on electric e-cargo bikes.
Characterisation, profiling and sorting, a 12-week anaerobic fermentation and aeration process turns food waste into carbon rich soil organic matter.
After testing, application on local test and trial plots reviving neglected areas of land whilst nourishing our estate (DEM Gardens coming in 2024)
We will use DEM gardens to showcase efficient use of local resources to build a thriving neighbourhood and green local circular economies.
City Soil Lab is a GROW foundation project and part of a wider environmental plan by Silas Science. We work together to put biology back where it needs to be by connecting urban organic waste streams to rural soil organic matter shortages.
Cities are solutions.
Waste lays the base to build an entirely different place!
