Decentralized Composting in Austria with Verena of 3-er Hof & Florian of the ISWA

On our International Solid Waste Association study tour on decentralized bio waste recycling—or just the compost scene—in Austria, we visited 3-er Hof Farm, Farm 3, and spoke with second generation composter Verena. Her families farm is an inspiring mix of compost production, crop production, and social connection with people of all abilities and ages. Instead of an interview, I recorded the lecture given at Farm 3. You'll hear from Verena about Farm 3 and then from Florian, who organized the study tour, about how compost collection works. It's a system of collecting and processing that works well in a semi-rural area.
