Community Composting
Firmly committed to helping the environment, ARCC has introduced a Community Composting initiative for its Members, Associate Members, Ground Staff and Residents.
Green and brown organic waste is collected from around the centre and turned into rich compost we can all use on-site to create luscious edible gardens. ARCC also picks up organic waste from the nearby fruit & vegetable shop, Jouni Fruit Market on Addison Road.

For any enquiries about the composting initiative, or if you’re a member of the community and are interesting in finding out more, please contact environment@addisonrdcentre.com.au

A collection of individuals food scraps and carbon materials are collected from around the centre into a 220L Tumbleweed Bin |
 |
It is then shovelled into a large bay composting system where it is layered and checked for contamination |
 |
It is then shovelled back into a series of 220L Tumbleweed compost bins to mature. It is regularly turned and watered. |
 |
Once the compost is mature it is left to rest for a few weeks before harvested |
 |
Compost ready for use! |
