Description

Waste to Harvest – From peels to soil, right in the neighborhood Waste to Harvest is an initiative in Amsterdam that helps residents compost their fruit and vegetable scraps locally. You drop off your organic waste at one of the collection points, and it is turned into compost for neighborhood gardens.

This way, valuable nutrients stay in the cycle, and composting becomes a community-owned activity, not just for the municipality.



Why do we like it? Here, your orange peel simply transforms into tomato feed. Waste to Harvest shows in a fun and practical way how small waste can have a big impact. And the best part? You literally see the results back in your neighborhood.
