The innovative approach to reducing waste at Sewerby Hall, Gardens and Zoo has led to the development of a unique product – animal waste, or “zoo poo”, which will be sold to gardeners as a natural and eco-friendly fertilizer. This sustainable method not only reduces waste but also provides a valuable resource for those looking to create a healthy and balanced garden ecosystem.

The Benefits of Animal Waste

Animal waste is a rich source of essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are vital for plant growth. These nutrients can be beneficial for a wide range of plants, including flowers, vegetables, and lawns. In addition to providing nutrients, animal waste also has several other benefits, including:

  • Improving soil structure and moisture retention
  • Nourishing plants and promoting healthy growth
  • Acting as a natural pest deterrent
  • Reducing the need for synthetic fertilizers

A New Way to Support the Zoo

The sale of zoo poo will not only benefit gardeners but also support the zoo’s mission to promote environmental sustainability. All of the funds raised from the sale of zoo poo will be used to improve the zoo’s facilities and provide the highest quality food, enclosures, and treatments for the animals. This means that visitors will be able to enjoy a unique and enriching experience, while also supporting a good cause.
