Philosophy
Green For You exists to give purpose to individuals. Purpose, no matter how big or small, gives us something to live for. Green For You believes that cultivating and regenerating soil to grow wonderful flowers, food or foliage gives us an individual purpose. When we come together to learn and share knowledge we can feel supported, valued and seen.
FOUNDATION
The way we see it, food is an immeasurable resource. It takes an almost countless amount of hours to grow, harvest, pack, gather, cook and eat. When the entire process is broken down we can see the massive efforts that go into providing food for our loved ones. We then start to realise that it is no small feat that Australia generates enough food for over seventy million people. Currently one/third of this is wasted.
Green For You has built its foundations on recovering, repurposing and re-utilizing the nutritious and highly regenerative powers held within food.
A NEW GENERATION OF COMPOSTERS
A new generation of composters means a new community of individuals who hold themselves accountable for their actions regarding food waste.
A community that encourages experimentation, diversity, exploration and empowers those around them to lead revolutionary social and environmental change.
The new generation of composters acknowledges the value of food waste and utilizes the power of community to affect the greatest possible change and begin to regenerate their own local soils.
CLOSING THE LOOP
Green For You aims to close the loop on food waste by implementing solutions at a local scale. By addressing consumption patterns, challenging resource efficiency and implementing circular economy principles we close the loop on the process and complete the natural cycle.
Closing the loop on food waste allows for a major reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the production of a highly nutritious compost to regenerate local soils and finally the creation and support of long term and sustainable local jobs.
