Green Cone

I have been digging a hole, a big hole about 1 meter deep, for a few days... that's not fun... :-(  It's all for our new ECO product we are installing in the backyard.

Here is the Green Cone, the solar powered food digester! We have been thinking about getting a regular composter for a while, but we learned we don't have very much yard waste to put in. We only have evergreen trees, 25+cedars and a tamarac. We don't even have green yard waste, only a bit during the summer from the veggie garden. We have more food waste than anything else, so we decided to go with this Green Cone.

So, it's not a composter. It doesn't create even a handful of the composter in the end. Instead, it will be absorbed as water and carbon dioxide by the soil. Using solar heat in combination with macro-bacterial activity. It breaks the waste down aerobically into nutrient rich water that is absorbed into the soil. (from https://www.greencone.ca)

We will start trying it today and see how it works.We will let you know its progress later (minus photos of inside!). Oh, did I tell you our city had a composter promotion in June and July, and we get $50 rebate in the mail! Yay :)
