All Seasons Indoor Composter™ and All Seasons Bokashi™ Provide Easy Way to Recycle Food Waste Right in Your Kitchen



Recycling kitchen wastes has never been easier, or less smelly, thanks to a new indoor composting kit from SCD Probiotics. Designed to fit under most kitchen sinks, the composting bucket collects food scraps in an airtight bucket. Bokashi, made using SCD's probiotic technology, helps accelerate the process and reduces foul odors normally associated with composting.



Kansas City, Mo. (PRWEB) May 18, 2010



SCD Probiotics, a Kansas City-based manufacturer of probiotic products, announces a newly packaged composting kit, making it easier than ever for consumers to help the environment and recycle kitchen scraps all year long.



Benefits to the consumer of recycling kitchen wastes include improving the soil in their lawns and gardens for stronger, healthier plants (including flowers, vegetables, shrubs, etc.) and reducing solid waste that in our landfills.



The plastic bucket (made from 70% post consumer recycled plastic) includes an air-tight lid important to the fermentation process, a spigot at the bottom of the bucket for easy access to the nutrient-rich “tea” used as an additional soil amendment, and is conveniently sized to fit under most kitchen sinks.



The package of Bokashi included in the kit is a safe, non-toxic compost starter that increases the nutrient levels in the soil with an infusion of beneficial, naturally occurring microorganisms. First developed by ancient Japanese farmers, this sweet-smelling additive also helps prevent odors of the fermenting food.



Included with the kit are simple, pictorial instructions and Helpful Tips for Composting Indoor. YOUTUBE videos are online, demonstrating how to bury your composting when the bucket is full.



The time to step up consumer recycling of food waste is now. Timothy Jones, an anthropologist at the University of Arizona Bureau of Applied Research in Anthropology, has spent 10 years measuring food loss in the United States. Cutting food waste would go a long way toward reducing serious environmental problems. Jones estimates that reducing food waste by half could reduce adverse environmental impacts by 25% through reduced landfill use, soil depletion and applications of fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides.¹



Further evidence suggests that dumping food waste in a landfill causes environmental damage. By volume, it is the largest contributor to methane gas production.² It causes odor as it decomposes, attracts flies and vermin, and has the potential to add Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) to the leachate.
