Green Cone is an innovative food waste disposal unit that is incredibly simple to use. It's the ultimate waste food disposal solution for anyone who doesn't have the time to compost. Most Green Cones produce so little residue that they will need cleaning only once every few years. The only thing you have to think about is finding a small spot in your garden that gets the sun & has good drainage above the water table, & then you can dig your Green Cone in & let it get to work. The fantastic thing about the Green Cone is that all your food waste, even meat bones are consumed & broken down by natural & good micro-organisms. The innovative system recycles the waste & pumps it back into the soil
- so there's absolutely no turning, moving or spreading. Over time, the cone will build up matter inside which you can simply dig into the ground to further enrich the soil Approx. once a year. Only water & carbon dioxide & a little organic residue will be left. Weight 8.5kg. 38 x 38 x 70 cm.

The Greenfingers Garden at Little Havens Hospice
- In June this year, Greenfingers charity are going to transform a large vacant plot of land into a fun, interactive grow-your-own garden which will be used by families who are staying at the hospice for respite, medical treatment or end of life care. The whole family will be able to get their hands dirty planting seeds at the speically adapted raised beds & enjoy the simple pleasures of gardening together. Everyone will be able to use the garden, it will be totally accessable for wheelchairs & even for beds if the children cannot leave their beds. How you can help? It's very simple! Time is running out, as this garden is being started this June & it will be so disappointing not having enough funds to finish this magical garden in time for the longest summer days, when children & their families can play, relax, get rest & respite! We will provide all the plants for the raised beds, but we still need you to help raise 5, 000 for the bespoke raised wooden beds to grow fruit & veg. It's very simple
- we have created 3 fantastic wildlife-attracting collections of 3 to 12 potted perennial plants that provide food & shelter
- & we all love spending time in our gardens & enjoying the nature it brings to them! For every pack sold, we'll make a donation (as detailed) to the Greenfingers garden. Or, if perennials aren't your thing, why not just make a donation
- 1.00, 5.00, 10.00 whatever you can spare
- every little helps!
