Kaicycle Composting takes compostable scraps from homes, offices and small businesses and recycles them into living compost.

We offer a bicycle-powered compost collection service for businesses in central Wellington City, and a drop-off service for households in the central city and suburbs.

Kaicycle has a regenerative and organic urban farm on Hospital Road in Newtown. We are developing models to productively grow food in the city while working with natural systems to regenerate soil and ensure we are producing nutrient-dense food.

The food we produce is given to volunteers and donated to community groups distributing it to those in need. We do sell our natural salad mix through our Salad Club.

Climate Change Ready

We see the work that we are contributing to as helping to create centers of climate resilience. From carbon sequestration to hyper-local food production and community collaboration, we see local food and compost hubs being a key tool for a climate-ready future. We collaborate with other land-based projects around the country to share our resources and knowledge.

Education

We offer various educational workshops and sessions during the year. These range from seed sowing and propagation, garden design and preparation, and compost building and maintenance.

As capacity allows, we will share our next sessions on Facebook and through our newsletter.

Open-Source

We believe in open-source systems and peer-to-peer networks working together like mycelium to create resilient and co-operative communities. We are happy to share information, systems and knowledge about the things we do.

We are actively working on new innovations and techniques to help build the best soil and compost.

Get Involved

If you want to learn more about gardening, soil or composting, come along to our weekend volunteering sessions at our Newtown urban farm. We welcome all volunteers at all levels of skill and experience.
