Home Composting Made Simple
You likely have a fridge, a TV, and a washing machine in your home. We believe you should have a composter, too. We make turning your daily kitchen waste into 'black gold' as simple as doing laundry. No smell, no mess, just real impact.
Our founder, Poonam Kasturi, explains why composting is not just a good idea, but a necessary one. This short video shows how we are helping over 90,000 families across India turn their kitchen waste into valuable compost, keeping thousands of kilos of waste out of landfills every single day.
See how simple it can be to start composting right in your own home. This quick video walks you through the four easy steps: add your kitchen scraps, cover with our remix powder, add a pinch of turmeric, and cover with newspaper. That’s all it takes to begin.
This is what happens when a community decides to take responsibility for its own waste. We are so proud of Delhi's Navjeevan Colony, which uses our community composters to manage the kitchen waste of 250 homes, turning it into nourishment for their own lush gardens.
This is what we call 'black gold'. This rich, crumbly, nutrient-dense compost is the beautiful end result of your composting journey. It’s the earth's way of saying thank you for returning what belongs to it.
Are you worried about "monsters" in your composter? We get it. This video addresses the common fear of maggots, explaining that they are actually your friends in the composting process and showing you simple, effective ways to manage them without panic.
Composting is a lesson for all ages. We love seeing our youngest community members get involved, learning early on how to turn kitchen scraps into something valuable. It’s a simple, powerful way to teach children about their connection to the earth.
Our founder Poonam always said that most people feel it's not their job to take care of waste, but with 60% of what we throw out being organic, the responsibility is ours. We are here to help you take that first step, one composter at a time.
About this collection
Most people fear that home composting will attract pests or create foul odors in their apartment. Our Khamba system proves otherwise. Because it is designed for aerobic decomposition, it does not rot; it breathes. By layering your daily kitchen waste with our remix powder, you stop the 'gandh' and create nutrient-rich soil right on your balcony.
We started this movement because we saw our cities struggling under the weight of preventable waste. 60 percent of what you throw out is organic matter that simply does not belong in a landfill. Our solution is simple: we provide the tools to help you manage this waste within your own four walls.
Our composters are crafted from terracotta by potter clusters across India, providing them with better livelihoods while giving you a natural, breathable vessel for your waste. Whether you live in a compact apartment in Mumbai or a house with a garden in Bengaluru, our designs ensure you can compost without flies, smell, or effort.
This is not just about waste management. It is about closing the loop. When you take your vegetable peels, leftover food, and garden trimmings and feed them into a composter, you are participating in a cycle that benefits the earth. You will harvest your own compost, which we call 'black gold,' to nourish your plants.
We support you through the entire process. From helping you identify the right composter for your space to troubleshooting those initial 'is this normal' moments, we are here. Our community includes over 90,000 families who have already made the switch. If they can do it, you can too.
