Things to know…
Grab your free bag of coffee grounds!
Not only are coffee grounds a natural, organic fertiliser for your garden, they also represent a way to reduce waste for free.
Coffee is the most popular drink globally. This results in a significant amount of grounds, the waste from leftover coffee. These can be used to nourish the soil and plants in your garden, meaning that this is more sustainable for the environment than adding grounds to household bins or pouring them down the drain.
We are committed to promoting sustainability and to reducing food waste in innovative ways, to minimise our environmental impact.
Seasonal Surplus
An environmental enterprise which specialises in the interception of surplus food destined for waste.
They intercept edible produce from heading to landfill. This produce may be past best before, have suffered accidental damage or deemed to be surplus to requirements.
Keep an eye out for dishes featuring throughout the month, created with surplus products.
Food waste legislation is changing
From 31st March 2025 all food Waste MUST be separated from general waste / recycling.
The UK government is committing to the near elimination of food waste to landfill by 2028, with a preference for all food waste to end up in the anaerobic digestion (AD) treatment system. This is primarily due to enhancing our ability to generate bio-fuels and gases to support our renewable energy infrastructure (green-gas) and digestates (used for land fertilisation).
We see this as a positive move from the UK government as they start to implement tangible regulation to support the overall Net Zero strategic goals however, it does require that every business has separate food waste collections and that no food waste contaminates general waste from the point the regulation comes into force in April of this year.
