In front of the FTA entrance (In case of bad weather in the lobby)
 

Vegetable and fruit peelings and trimmings, tea or coffee grounds, dry houseplant leaves or green carrot stalks, all of this  is biodegradable waste that is produced in almost every household. By vermicomposting, it can be used at home without smell, e.g. in a designer vermicoposter that you won´t  be embarrassed to have in front of visitors. At the workshop, you will learn how to set up a home vermicoposter, how to care for it and its crew, and how and what to use the resulting substrate and digestate for.

 

 

 

The CZU FreeShop has been open all year round at the CZU for several years now, where you can swap clothes and household items for free.
The Freeshop is located on the 4th floor of Dorm C.
For more information on the Freeshop and opening hours, please visit Facebook or Instagram.

There is also a Facebook group Free Food CZU, where you can donate unconsumed, safe food or beverages and reduce food waste with us.
