This is an exciting project to be anounced at the Zero Waste Summit.
The wider economic viability of collecting and composting urban organic waste for use as a cost effective, high quality agricultural input is about to be put to the test as part of a new partnership project between farmers and the Goulburn Mulwaree, Palerang, Queanbeyan City and Lachlan Councils.
The Groundswell project will get underway in Condobolin, in the Lachlan Shire, where collections are scheduled to start in May 2008, with collections to follow in Goulburn (August 2008), Queanbeyan and Palerang Shires (November 2008).
Throughout the past 20 years, National Farmers organisations have run a series of Quality Assurance programs, one of these which became known as Paddock to Plate was focused on ensuring the consumer that the food on their plate was of a consistent and high quality.
