Food Waste Collection, Compost and Worm Specialists in Huddersfield
Composting is more than just recycling food and organic waste – it’s about adding biology back into the soil. Did you know that every teaspoon of healthy soil contains more bacteria than there are humans on the planet! Not to mention the fungi, protozoa, and nematodes all living in this mysterious world beneath our feet, a world that we never think about yet is so important to our survival.
To function properly, the soil needs the help of this array of life forms. Everything from bacteria and fungi to earthworms and millipedes helps to form the food web that allows the soil to play the key role it does. If anyone of these key players is missing or too abundant then the whole web is thrown out of sync, leading to stressed and sick plants that are easily attacked by pathogens and pests.
If we treat the earth and soil with care, then we’ll have no need for weedkillers, insecticide sprays, or artificial fertilisers. Through the raw power of nature, we can make our gardens and countryside thrive with vibrant diversity.
