Did you know...

Using compost as a fertilizer for your own food cultivation is the simplest and most direct way to connect us with nature, and at the same time contributes to the reduction of the organic waste sent to final treatment, which corresponds to about 40% of our garbage bag.
 

   
   
 
  CITIZENSHIP  

To be a citizen is to exist inside a community, to know its rights and duties and to apply this existence with an active participation.

We only become citizens when we participate in the public space, which means when we know how to choose, we can choose and we effectively do choose.

A citizen knows how to act in order to get a better quality of life.

To respect and to take care of the environment is to preserve our own life!

"All have the right to a human, healthy and ecologically balanced life environment, and the duty to defend it."
Portuguese Republic Constitution (art. 66º)

THE COMMON SPACE
The citizen is co-responsible for the state of cleanness of the public spaces of the place where he lives. The citizens participation is vital and  fighting against the state of incredulity and inertia that has been verified is necessary.

Lipor's Mission

To make aware the population to the waste problem and to the composting contribution for the problem solving, to incentive citizens about the role that each of us can have in the sustainable development of the planet, summarizes the reasons for the creation of HORTA DA FORMIGA – Home Composting Centre.
