INTRODUCTION
LIPOR along with its Associated Municipalities has been
acting as a catalyst for change, using a range of policies,
programs, and actions to promote and encourage the
advancement of LIPOR’s intervention area towards a more
sustainable future .
LIPOR’s Waste Prevention Strategy
Considering the importance of Prevention in waste
management, LIPOR took on three fundamental issues:
✓ Changing processes to eliminate waste at the
production stage
✓ Reducing waste at source, enhanced by a change of
mentality
✓ Reusing products in order to increase savings

“ORGANIC FARMING”
Organic farming intends to promote a more sustainablebehaviour in the population of the eight municipalities: achange of attitude towards the environment, consideringthe respect for nature, ecosystems, soil and also for thefuture generations.
In 2016 were distributed 1.656 plots that allow families toproduce sustainably their own fruits and vegetables. Inaddition they can make home composting and use theproduced compost in their plots. Within this scope thereare in operation more that 1.440 composters (individualand shared).
In the eight municipalities there are 50 kitchen gardens,constituted by institutional, social and subsistence gardens,making a total organic farming area of 111,224 m2.

6 YEARS OF “NATURAL GARDENS”
Since 2010 Natural Garden Project promotes sustainability andbiodiversity in the gardens (public and private) located in Lipor’sassociated municipalities.
There are already 71 institutions that have decided to promotenature and biodiversity in their gardens, reducing at the sametime the costs with the maintenance of their green spaces.
In 2016 we worked with several institutions such as: Red Cross –Matosinhos; Association Kastelo; Escola de Hotelaria e Turismo doand Association Casa do Caminho that in partnership thevolunteers of SAGE company has developed the kitchen gardenand the garden of the institution.
Specific innovative information boards were developed for Lipor'sgreen spaces.
Natural Garden also disseminate sustainable gardening techniquessuch as the introduction of efficient microorganisms in homecomposting, through the study of the advantages of theseorganisms.
A natural technique was also applied to degrade poplar stumpsnear Lipor’s Organic Valorisation Plant: with the application ofmushroom mycelium it was possible to start this degradation(which will take place over the next years) which, besidesdegradation, will result in tasty mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus).
Bring on another 6 years of Natural Gardens…

GARDEN WASTE QUANTIFICATION STUDY
“How much (garden) waste does a garden produce?”
This study aims to answer this question.
The results were the following:
• There are differences between the production of garden wastein small gardens (<45m2) and in big gardens (>150m2).Smaller gardens have a bigger production of waste per squaremeter (kg/m2/year) than larger gardens;
• A garden with more than 300m2 produces more than300 kg of garden waste per year;
• A 300L composter serves up to 300m2 and requires approximately 150kg/year of garden waste for its suitableoperation;
This study concludes that home composting has a great potential for diversion of organic waste from incineration orlandfill. The estimated value is about 500kg of organic waste per year.
