ACN & Sustainable Taranaki

Check out the linked presentation above for some great content:

Listen in as we hear from the Sustainable Taranaki Crew talking about the Green Loop. We hear from Mieke Verschoor, a fellow member of our network, who is a Co-founder of the Green Loop and Organics Programmes Manager at Sustainable Taranaki. She is leading education and behavior change towards turning food waste into resources. We also hear from Caroline, another fellow member, who is the soil food web trained scientist working on this project. The Green Loop’s mission “is to divert commercial food waste from landfills to local farms and turn it into nutrient-dense, carbon-sequestering compost at no cost to farmers.” “Benefits for local farms: Nutrient-dense compost Restore Taranaki’s soil health Support farmers’ transition to other crops or regenerative growing”.
