Bokashi Fermentation is the big idea behind Throw To Grow. The Bokashi Bucket is a home fermentation system that allows you to recycle 100% of your food waste (meat & dairy too) right inside your kitchens without foul odors or bugs. Now that’s sustainability!

You can get your own Bokashi Bucket when you pledge $100 or more to the Throw To Grow KICKSTARTER.

YOU can be a part of the solution to save our world from a trash takeover!

Throw To Grow is the beginning of a new trash revolution. Throw To Grow is a food waste recycling pilot project in Hawaii that will implement a innovative anaerobic fermentation method to rapidly recycle food waste into good soil in a clean and green way. 

We welcome you to be a part of our venture to turn abundant waste to abundant resource, to support local food for local consumption.

Pilot Project

The pilot project begins in Feb 2012. We will be working with schools, restaurants and other businesses, recycling 100% of their food waste into primo soil. We dream of one day being able to return the world's food waste back to the land.
