Green cone sale extended until Oct 31st

June 25, 2014

In exciting composting news, we are offering the green cone food digesters for a special sale price of $130 (down from $165) until September 30th October 31st!  So many folks are excited about the opportunity to get a bargain digester that we decided to extend the sale.

Curious about the green cone food digester?  Here’s the scoop!  The Green Cone digester accepts all food scraps, including items that typically cannot go into a backyard compost bin :

• dairy
• cooked food
• bread
• bones & meat

The digester must be dug 2 feet into well draining soil in a sunny area of the garden.

Simply add all your food scraps and it will ‘digest’ them – turning your waste into a nutrient rich leachate that is absorbed by the surrounding soil.

It can also be used to compost pet waste (must be placed at least 10 feet away from a food garden or fruit producing tree in this case).

No skill or effort required, simply fill and forget:

• Easy assembly – requires only a screwdriver and a shovel
• Requires very little maintenance after installation
• Handles up to 11lbs of food scraps per week
• Pest resistant
• Perfect for group dwellings, schools and households with limited green space

For more information on the green cone food digester, check out our Fact Sheet!
