• no chemical fertilisers used
• plants that are fitting to the local environment
• herbs and fruit trees that supply the restaurant with seasonal organic produce

3 Dry toilets or western toilets with treatment system

• dry toilets to reduce water waste
• urine separation toilets that combine urine with grey water to supply underground source of water to non-edible plants
• western toilets, as part of the water filtration system

4. 100% solar energy & energy conservation

• 100% use of LED or power saving light bulbs
• 100% solar energy – no connections to mains electricity
• maximisation of natural lighting & ventilation

5. Cleaning products and wellbeing products are home made and organic

• black soap used to make natural shampoos and soaps
