Guest Speaker: Michael Sacco, Founder of Chocosol
ChocoSoil is a community-based urban agriculture research project that integrates soil making and rooftop container gardening into the day-to-day operations at their facility. It is an embodiment of their cradle-to-cradle approach to food waste and is a model for high density chef gardening and soil regeneration in small urban spaces. Basically, it integrates soil making into the day-to-day operations at ChocoSol and reflects our work towards producing healthy urban soil ecosystems and rooftop grown spices for chocolate making on site at our location in Toronto
Cradle to cradle’ is an approach where the creation and disposal of waste is considered from design to production. This re-integration of our waste contrasts the “out of sight, out of mind” mentality that currently exists in our urban waste production system. Their food scraps, garden clippings, paper towels, cacao shells and coffee grounds are sorted and composted on-site. This compost is mixed with coco coir to create the soil for the edible weeds, herbs and flowers we grow for our chocolate, tamales and tortillas.
Their Tortilla Project is community based research that focuses on creating healthy, delicious, maize foods. Tortillas and tamales are inspired by Indigenous traditions, and Cacao Maize Power Cookies that bridge our chocolate and tortilla kitchens. The project reflects our commitment to support Ontario’s local, ecological farming community and provide our customers with nutritious, local, and sustainable food.
Michael will be talking about many sustainable approaches at Chocosol and may even bring their Bicycle Blender. Michael will have free samples of their delicious chocolate, drinking chocolate and coffee's. He will also have some take home options if you wish to purchase
