Good separation helps farmers know what they are collecting. It also keeps your kitchen cleaner.

Five simple steps

  1. Identify. Look at each leftover and decide which group it belongs to (veg, bakery, eggshells, fish, chicken, or other).
  2. Separate. Put each group in its own labelled bin or bag.
  3. Keep it clean. Take out plastic, foil, stickers, and other non-food items.
  4. Estimate the amount. Note the weight in kg, or count bags, so your listing is clear.
  5. List soon. Post fish and chicken waste quickly because they spoil fast.
Tip: labelled bins make this easy for your whole team.
