Thank You for an Incredible 2024!

As the year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for your support in making 2024 truly extraordinary. Together, we’ve achieved incredible milestones, and we couldn’t have done it without you.

This year, we launched a refreshed website filled with valuable new information and resources, making it easier than ever to compost at home and commercially and to support sustainable practices.

We hosted the inspiring zero-waste cooking event ‘Cooking for Change’ in Brisbane, in partnership with OzHarvest and Alastair McLeod. This event brought the community together for positive change.

In May, we launched our first piece of research highlighting the success of South Australia composting its food waste and compostable packaging via council-provided kerbside FOGO bins – a viable and effective waste management solution.

Building on these insights, we launched the “Compost for Climate” educational campaign to spark action and introduced a petition urging councils to champion composting as a key strategy to combat climate change.

These achievements reflect the power of collective action and a shared commitment to sustainability. As we look forward to 2025, we’re excited to continue working with you to create a more sustainable future.

From all of us at Compost Connect, we wish you a happy, healthy New Year!
