Bokashi Composters

Bokashi is a unique way of composting food waste by making use of microbial culture. Bokashi is an environmentally friendly, alternative way to compost that is clean and tidy and can be used virtually anywhere.

Bokashi is actually a Japanese term that means 'fermented organic matter'. As the translation suggests, it uses a bran-bsed material that has been fermented with bacteria and microbe liquid concentrate and then dried for ease of use and lack of mess.

Beat The Winter Blues

Stay healthy this winter and help beat the winter blues by keeping your health and skin in tip-top condition. With the sun setting earlier, it can be harder to get all the vitamin D we require so consider taking a good multivitamin tablet to keep your health up to scratch. Vitamin D is important because it helps the body to absorb calcium which in turn helps ensure your bones stay strong.
