Meet Dave and Mel, 'The Green Thumbs'

Dave and Mel love their garden, their chickens and composting. They also know FOGO has a space for all the things they can't use in their garden like dairy, citrus, meat, bones, shellfish and weeds.

Why? Because they know every little bit helps to create a greener tomorrow.

We know there are plenty of people in Wollongong doing great things for the environment by managing a lot of waste on their property by having a compost, worm farm or chickens.

For everything else that can't be used in your garden, we'd love to see it in FOGO. It may seem like you only have a small amount, but it all adds up and is another step towards us reaching Wollongong's net zero emissions target.

If you're not already using FOGO, find out more on How to FOGO.
