#Bioeconomy twitter: why don't we see more #biochar compost? Peat is [meant to be] being voluntarily phased out of hobby compost by the end of 2020, but I haven't seen any peat-free compost in the shops. Is it an issue of price, quality, availability, or lack of hard policy?

Done a bit of a tot up since our last post and we have now paid out £5.06m in business grants - and we're still going. Thinking about how we can keep a staff on over Easter so we don't lose momentum. We know how much this is needed.
