Today we’re talking all about composting toilet experiences of the Nature Loo 650 with Anthony Hill, a tiny houser based in the Northern Rivers of NSW (Bundjalung Country). He grew up in the coastal town of Coffs Harbour and spent nearly half his life traveling and living overseas.
It was here that he became engaged in environmental and social issues joining discussion groups, running events, and producing a radio show with a friend. His interest in alternative living and food growing became quite an obsession and he dreamed of, one day, living off-grid back home in Australia.
Anthony was on the show back in episode 13 with his partner Kirra, sharing all about their tiny house journey. I’ve invited Anthony back this time to chat about their experiences with using the Nature Loo 650 composting toilet.
In this conversation, we talk about:
- The main reasons for choosing a composting toilet
- How the Nature Loo 650 works
- All about emptying, cleaning, smell, and ventilation
- The importance of understanding the Microbiome and having a “right relationship” with nature
- Some lessons from using a composting toilet
- Advice for tiny housers looking into which tiny toilet option is right for them… and lots more.
