Edible Earth is a not for profit project by For The Better Good, creators of New Zealand’s first plant-based, compostable and regenerative water bottle. We exist to give people a better choice, but we’re not really a bottled water company, we’re a team of Kiwis who are here to be better, and to help you do the same.

We are a small social enterprise focussed on making our mark for our community, by designing waste out of the system. A few years ago we started with our bottles, now we actively divert food waste and compostable packaging from landfill, compost it in our Edible Earth micro-farms throughout New Zealand and grow incredible local produce for communities - all made possible by what we traditionally see as ‘waste’. In everything we’re doing we are proving that waste is a valuable resource and in turn, the bridge to Edible Earth.

Everyone needs to start small, and start somewhere. We have started with this website - where you are right now, a micro-farm on an old bowling green in Porirua and 6 composing sites nationwide. We are in talks with councils about two new community gardens - hopefully coming soon. As we bring more initiatives and content to life you’ll be the first to know. 

This may seem like baby steps, however as we spread Edible Earth, turning unused land into food sources, please follow with us, nominate your land, share your ideas, get your children involved, compost your kitchen scraps.
