WickWorming™ Sustainable Planter Boxes
Planter boxes that utilise WaterUps® wicking cells to create a self-watering planter box that harnesses capillary action to save up to 80% water compared to conventional watering techniques. We have also installed in-ground worm farms to our planter box which can process up to 2-3kgs of food waste per week when fully functioning. This creates a compost known as vermicompost which can be fed back into your garden bed. To know more visit https://bit.ly/3oHGbOX

Keeping It Local - 100% Australian
Fibre Arts Shed is a small, family-owned business on the NSW Central Coast Hinterland that sells raw materials and tools to fibre artists. Their aim is to to set up a new-to-us mini-mill which will enable them to process Aussie-grown wool and alpaca fibre straight from the farm and manufacture beautiful yarn for knitting, instead of shipping it overseas for processing. Not only will this keep more wool and alpaca in Australia, it will also help local wool growers and alpaca breeders to create a product that is 100% traceable and 100% Australian.

Ocean carbon credits
If we are to keep global warming to 1.5 degrees, CO2 will need to be removed from the atmosphere.The Ocean Nourishment Corporation is working to enhance the natural process of photosynthesis by phytoplankton whereby they draw CO2 from the atmosphere. As more CO2 is drawn down, more carbon will be stored at the bottom of the ocean when the phytoplankton die. A carbon credit can be created for each additional tonne of CO2 stored.If 2.4 billion tonnes can be stored, then, at $50 per tonne,  this technique can create a market in excess of $100 billion.
