Home Composting for Housing Societies

A hands-on session at your society that sets up composting for kitchen waste, so families turn daily scraps into rich compost for their plants instead of sending them to the landfill.

2 to 3 hours 15–100 people At your venue Hindi, English

Every day a housing society sends hundreds of kilos of kitchen waste to the landfill. Most of it is vegetable peels, tea leaves and leftover food, which can become rich compost in a few weeks.

In this hands-on session at your society, our team shows residents and housekeeping staff how to compost at home and as a society. We set up a working compost unit with you, so composting starts the same day.

What we cover:

  • What goes into compost and what never should
  • Home composting in a bucket or pot, for every flat
  • A society-level setup for the common kitchen waste
  • Keeping compost free of smell, flies and pests
  • Using the finished compost in balcony pots and society gardens

Good to know: many cities now expect large housing societies to process their wet waste on site. We help you set up a system your residents will actually keep using.

What participants take away

  • Set up a home compost bucket for every flat
  • Separate wet and dry waste correctly at source
  • Run a society-level compost unit for common kitchen waste
  • Keep compost free of smell, flies and pests
  • Use finished compost in balcony pots and society gardens
