Once bagged, the compost can be collected for free. Silo has a heated composter; it is an anaerobic digester (no air) and they use an activator to get it going. It is able to convert food waste, paper/wooden cutlery waste to compost in one day. The resulting compost is given away to customers, suppliers and allotment holders. To eliminate waste the cafe uses local ingredients that generate no waste, they trade directly with local farmers and suppliers of intercepted waste which is heading to landfill.Locations:Brighton-England-Europe-United KingdomDate:26 Apr, 2015Credit:© Emma Stoner / GreenpeaceMaximum size:3744px X 5616pxKeywords:Day-Food for Life (campaign title)-Indoors-KWCI (GPI)-Local population-One person-Restaurants-SAGE (campaign title)-Waste disposal-WomenShoot:Silo Cafe in BrightonSilo Cafe describes itself as a pre industrial food system who choose to provide quality through purity, adopting a more primitive diet with techniques both modern and ancient.
