Composting is a natural, useful and ecological solution to fertilize but also a very interesting solution of waste conversion and transformation.

Restaurant 3 is composting the organic fraction of its waste since last year (article here), producing a compost of the highest possible quality. With the autumnal plantation period beginning, SCE department has launched a distribution program to enable the CERN Community to benefit from this 10 m3 natural fertilizer that looks and smells like soil.

If you're eager to enrich your garden soil with high-quality compost, simply express your interest by sending an email to cern.dechets@cern.ch. The distribution will operate on a 'first come, first served' basis, the 24 and 31 October 2024 in B133, between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM.

Please note that anyone interested shall bring their own container or box (max. 100L/person) to collect the compost.
