Map notes
During the education programme ‘On transformations and metamorphoses’, where students visited allotment gardens in the city boroughs of Neureut and Daxlanden, it became evident that allotment garden clubs / Kleingartenvereine (solid dots on the map) and their members are invaluable sources of practical knowledge about composting. In parallel, municipal composting facilities / Kompostierungsanlagen (outlined dots) provide the large-scale infrastructure required to process the city’s biodegradable waste into usable compost.
