Green Johanna enables you to
compost food waste, including meat, fish, bones
and dairy products,
along
with garden waste to produce a quality,
year-round compost. Designed and manufactured in Sweden,
Green Johanna
produces the finest compost, fully broken down into a moist, nutrient
rich soil. Green Johanna's compost is the ultimate treat for
your
vegetables and garden plants. Thanks to her cone shaped
design
shape and
optional
winter jacket, Green Johanna consistently supplies fresh
compost
for 12 months of the year.
The Composter with a Healthy Appetite
Over half of household rubbish is biodegradable and can be
composted. Green Johanna will digest this waste for you, so
you won't
have to send it to landfill. Green Johanna has a healthy
appetite, and
will
compost the food
waste of up to five people together with
compostable waste from an average garden. Sending less waste
to
landfill will significantly reduce your carbon footprint. Less
landfill waste means fewer lorries on the road carrying the waste, and
reduces the need for environmentally degrading landfill sites
Using the Green Johanna you'll be able to dispose of food waste
immediately. This means
no
more smelly bin in your kitchen or stinking dustbin
containing
old food. Your household waste will be kept
clean
for recycling.
Allow Your Compost to Breathe
Green Johanna's cone shaped design ensures compost does not stick to
the
sides of the compost bin, but always sinks down towards the centre,
allowing air to circulate and oxygenating the compost. Air
circulation can be regulated by turning the lid, allowing you to
control the temperature of your compost whatever the season,
accelerating compost
production. Green Johanna's perforated base plate
encourages air circulation, and allows worms to enter the composter
whilst keeping out vermin. Four inward facing vents leading
in
from the base plate encourage air upwards into the composter.
The included wooden stirring stick allows you to effectively stir and
aerate your compost. This prevents a build up of the
environmentally damaging greenhouse gas methane.
Green
Johanna's round
shape ensures she has no cold corners, so she digests all
waste as
efficiently as possible. Read our extensive list of Frequently Asked
Questions about the Green Johanna

Collect Rich Compost Whenever You Need It
Green Johanna is easy to empty. Her rich compost is
accessible from a
sliding door near the ground. Ready-to-use compost can be
taken
from here using the supplied stirring stick, so you don't disturb the
waste that's still decomposing at the top. The sliding doors
also
allow you to inspect ongoing compost production, and to see when
compost is ready to use.
Assembly is simple. Arrows printed on Green Johanna indicate which
sections
of the bin must be kept in line.
Designed to Last
Green Johanna comes with a 5 year warranty. She's made from
durable
plastic designed to last at least ten years.

Optional Winter Jacket
The
optional winter jacket is made of foam polyethylene. The winter jacket
should be fitted when the average outdoor temperature consistently
falls below 5°C, and removed when the temperature is constantly above
10°C. It is essential that the winter jacket is removed during warmer
weather, otherwise the compost will burn, in which case the
micro-organisms die and the process is halted. Please select the
optional winter jacket from the drop-down menu at the bottom of this
page.
