  • CowPots are coming to Australia! Philip Horan shares how, when and why!
    Feb 1 2023

    We first got approached by Philip Horan in 2021 as he was investigating ways to add value to the digested manure coming from Australia's dairy farms. He was waist deep in permitting and planning a community digester facility and realized that there would be a need to add value to the material (poo) after passing through the digester. After 2 years of discussions, we decided it's time to announce our partnership. Listen as we discuss the how, the what, the where and the why of making CowPots in Australia.
