Mutfaktan çıkan çiğ sebze ve meyve atıkları ASLA 🙅‍♀️ çöp değildir! Biz okulumuzun mutfağından çıkan bu atıkları yeniden toprağa kavuşturmak için kompost ♻️ yapmaya başladık bile. Bu hafta 5 bidonumuzu da hergün çıkan atıklarla doldurduk. 🤯 En önemlisi, bidonumuzda karbon ve azot dengesini tutturabilmek için çiğ atıklara saman, kuru dal, 🍂 çim, vb bahçe atıklarını da eklemek gerekiyor, böylece doğal gübremiz yavaş yavaş oluşmaya başlayacak. Takipte kalın😉
••••• Raw vegetable and fruit waste produced from the kitchen is NEVER 🙅‍♀️ garbage! We have already started making our compost ♻️ from the waste that is left in our school’s kitchen. This week, we filled all 5 bins with these wastes. 🤯 Most importantly, in order to keep the carbon and nitrogen balance in our bin, it is necessary to add straw, dry branches, 🍂grass, and other garden wastes to the raw waste, so that our natural fertilizer will begin to form gradually. Stay tuned 😉 isikkent_egitim_kampusu
