Getting the most from your Green Cone

The Green Cone is a food waste digester that harnesses energy from the sun to dispose of all food waste - including cooked food, meat, fish and dairy - in the easiest way possible, with no turning or stirring required. Dug into a hole in well-draining soil in a sunny spot, the Cone reduces more than 90 per cent of its contents to nutrient-rich water, which drains out of its underground basket and feeds surrounding soil.

• The Green Cone requires a sunny spot and well-draining soil (not clay) to function properly.
• It accepts all types of food waste, including cooked food, meat, fish, and dairy.
• No turning or stirring is needed; the solar-powered digestion process is automatic.
• The underground basket allows the resulting nutrient-rich water to drain into the surrounding soil.
