·

Costa Georgiadis is backing an initiative to expand a food and garden waste collection service in Australia. 

The initiative is called the Food Organics and Garden Organics (FOGO) collection and currently runs in Sydney’s eastern suburbs. 

“From 22 November, a pilot FOGO collection for households in Belconnen, Bruce, Cook and Macquarie will begin,” the ACT Government writes. 

ABC Gardening Australia host Georgiadis will run information sessions about the initiative online.

It will include an overview of the pilot, advice from the guru, and a Q&A portion.

The sessions run on the 16, 18, 30 November, and 2 December.
