Meet Subpod: the remarkable in-ground compost system, worm farm, and self-fertilizing garden bed. No smells, pests, or stress—unlike traditional composting. It's composting made easy and enjoyable.

How Subpod Works

Compost worms and microbes live inside Subpod and turn all the materials you feed them into rich compost.

Subpod also acts as the ‘growth hub’ for your garden. Over time, nutrients from the compost will feed your garden soil, building soil fertility allowing you to grow nutrient-dense food at home with ease.

Feed the soil, Feed the world.

The growth hub for your garden powered by your food waste.

"As the global food waste crisis hits people’s radars, innovators are coming up with all kinds of creative solutions. Joining the movement, a team of people in Australia, has dreamed up a novel solution that makes composting food waste easier, quicker and more appealing – and it’s now been launched globally."
"...The Compost Central team has perfected after eight years of development and field testing, The Subpod; a modular composting system for the garden that is simple to assemble and use. In addition to being easy to follow, the project allows you to almost eliminate the manual work required using traditional systems..."
"Composting can be so good for the planet and so easy, because food waste ends up being a big part of our Earths problem…This is going to turn into soil eventually, then the soil is going to be used in our garden, so it is the most natural process of the Earth and it reduces food waste." - Ginger Zee
