At Incredible Edible, we believe in living and working sustainably in a way that benefits our landscapes without harming the environment.
Composting and wormeries are about more than just what we do with our organic waste. Soil is more than a tool for growth and many people argue that the protection of our soil should be placed at the heart of our whole environmental policies. Globally soil is degrading at an alarming rate. Generating three centimetres of top soil takes 1,000 years, and if current rates of degradation continue all of the world’s top soil could be gone within 60 years according to Maria-Helena Semedo from the United Nations.
But at Incredible Edible we don’t focus on what’s wrong; we focus on what’s strong. Our small actions are about more than making great compost they are about being connected to the rest of the world and playing our part in fighting for the future of our planet. When we care for the soil it is an act of resistance and our way to demonstrate local solutions to global problems.
This section helps to get you started on ways that you can connect with the soil and care for it and preserve it for future generations. We may not change the world overnight – but we can change our small patch of it. It may only be a drop in the ocean but at Incredible Edible we believe that the ocean is made up of drops.
