Compost is a gift for your garden. It makes the soil more airy, retains water better, and helps plants grow strong and healthy. Additionally, compost helps store CO₂, which is good for the climate.
By properly separating VGF waste, you contribute to the production of clean and usable compost. This reduces residual waste, supports healthy soil, and contributes to a smart circular economy where nothing goes to waste.
