Bokashi One: 2-Bucket Starter Kit
Another wonderful invention!
The Bokashi One is a composting system designed to be used in the kitchen.
It's a practical, hygienic and convenient process which utilises food waste to produce a rich juice and nourishing compost which inject life and vitality into your garden.
How does it work?
Food waste is layered with Bokashi One Mix in a Bokashi One Bucket. Due to the air-tight bucket and the micro-organisms present in the Bokashi One Mix, the waste ferments.
The waste does not decompose in the bucket, however, it reduces in volume as its water content drains through the grate at the bottom of the bucket, creating fantastic bokashi juice.
The juice is bursting with micro-organisms and can be diluted and used in the garden and around the home.
When the bucket is full, waste is transferred outside and buried beneath the soil to complete the composting process. Breakdown is rapid thanks to the micro-organisms present in the Bokashi One Mix.

The bins are made from 70% post-consumer recycled plastic and the Bokashi Mix is made in Australia.

Each starter kit includes: 2 Black or 2 White Bokashi One Buckets and 2 bags of Bokashi Mix.

Bokashi One: Mix Only - 1kg
What is Bokashi One Mix and how does it work?
Bokashi One Mix is made using a mixture of wheat bran and rice husks that have been sprayed with a group of effective micro-organisms. These micro-organisms ferment the waste in the bucket, eliminating unpleasant odours. When buried in the soil, the micro-organisms accelerate the breakdown of the waste. These all-natural micro-organisms include lactic acid bacteria, yeasts, photosynthetic bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi. The mix is dried thoroughly so it can be stored for years with no loss of effectiveness. The dry ingredients are a carrier and food source for the micro-organisms, which are dormant when dry in the packaging and activate again when added to your waste.

To be used with Bokashi One Bucket (available separately).
or
It also works well as a starter for your own home compost heap.

Carpet - Mat Medium - Mixed Blue
Hand made by Cambodian mothers to help empower them and help them keep their children in school.

Made from T-shirt off-cuts and rice sacks.
450mm x 650mm.
Each rug is unique.

Carpets for Communities works in the Poipet commune, Cambodia on the Thailand border.
Here, many children are at risk of human trafficking and being sold into prostitution as they are on the streets begging or working to support their family. Equally important, by working and begging, they are deprived of an education that would otherwise improve their long-term livelihoods. This ultimately has them trapped in a cycle of poverty.
By teaching the mothers of these children to produce hand-made rugs made from t-shirt off-cuts and rice sacks, the aim is to help break this cycle by empowering the mothers and their families and help them establish their own micro-enterprises, enabling them to earn an income. This allows them to send their children to school, building their education and allowing their family to have a more dignified and prosperous life.
