LOCCAL connects, supports, and advocates for place-based composting across Australia – amplifying the work of individuals, households, and community organisations that keep organic resources in local economies and enrich the communities they belong to.  

We represent community-led and community-operated composting in neighbourhoods, schools, apartment complexes, and towns across the country, building networks, showcasing local initiatives, and providing a forum for composters to share skills, knowledge, and resources. 

Membership is free and opens up a world of connections to other composters around Australia.
