Enjoy an educational and engaging evening with Mieke from Greenloop.
DURING THIS WORKSHOP YOU WILL LEARN ABOUT:
1) ‘Bokashi‘ principles
2) How to create your own bin from ‘waste’ resources
3) How to make your own ‘zing’?
4) How Greenloop is helping reduce food waste and emissions in our region.
Green Loop officially took shape in 2025. Our mission is simple: keep food waste out of landfill and put it back into the soil.
Here’s how it works:
We collect food scraps from local businesses and events.
They’re pre-processed using Bokashi, a low-emission fermentation method.
Composting continues with the Johnson Su system, producing microbe-rich compost.
That compost is returned to farms, community gardens, and marae — improving soil, reducing reliance on synthetic fertilisers, and sequestering carbon.
For businesses, it’s a practical way to reduce waste costs, meet sustainability commitments, and play a visible role in climate action. For farmers, it’s access to compost that restores soils compacted by decades of intensive agriculture. For our community, it’s a step toward food security, sovereignty, and resilience.
Looking Ahead
Green Loop is more than a waste service; it’s a movement to reconnect Taranaki’s food system. By working together, we can transform waste into opportunity and climate challenges into soil solutions.
This is shovel-ready climate action, circular by design, and rooted in the values of our region.
Our kaupapa is clear:
Cut emissions.
Build soil.
Empower communities.
Together, we can close the loop, for Taranaki, and for the future.
