The Green Cone feeds your kitchen waste to worms, bacteria, nearby trees, shrubs, flowers etc. in a controlled, underground microsystem.

The Green Cone Solar Digester System was designed in Canada in 1988 to handle the FULL spectrum of kitchen food waste. Used for both compostable AND 'traditionally non-compostable organic waste' like meat/seafood scraps, dairy, oils, pet waste etc., the Green Cone handles it all, unlike traditional composters. Some unique features include:
​
  • Cycles heated air through a Sun heated double wall for excellent breakdown of waste using aerobic digestion (low methane). Rarely, if ever, needs stirring. 

  • ​Pest/Raccoon proof lid, completely enclosed chamber, reduces smells that attract animals in the first place. Very durable plastic if they are a problem in your area.

  • ​Underground basket protects against pests while quickly feeding organics to powerful soil bacteria & fungi. Worms also cruise through to breakdown waste fast. Contribute nutrients back to your surrounding plant & tree life!

Onsite VS. Centralized

As legislation changes to ban food waste from going to landfill. Communities and municipalities are increasingly interested in onsite sustainable solutions to everyday food waste. The dynamic duo of Green Cone digesters and traditional composters onsite for households are very viable alternatives to a centralized green bin system- at a fraction of the cost. Avoid ongoing trucking costs and emissions while empowering citizens to handle waste themselves.  Contact us  about municipal programs and pricing.
