Pilot Orbisk - with five restaurants from the
frontrunner group of Sept / Nov 2022, their food
waste was measured using a software monitor -
Orbisk is responsible - Restaurants Haarlem involved.

Haarlem Food Future and Rabobank are starting a
Food Waste Challenge where restaurants put on their
food waste. After a baseline measurement in which
the food waste of a week is measured, it is
determined where most profit can be made. Then,
with the help of the Waste watchers’ restaurants will
work to reduce food waste. After the challenge, food
waste is measured again. In Brabant, more than 54%
less food was waste. Haarlem Food Future and the
Waste Watchers are responsible. Involved:
restaurants Leader group Restaurants.

Orbisk will monitor all
the data and give a
presentation at the
5th of December. They
weigh all the food
waste and take
pictures of it. By using
AI it is recognized
what kind of food is
thrown away.

Waste Watchers will
monitor all the data
given by the
restaurants. They are
coached to weigh all
their food waste and
monitor the results.

The solution doesn’t
seem to fit at all the
horeca places
(physical). It’s not
suitable (yet) for
smaller restaurants.
Orbisk will develop
new software and
tries to exclude the
scale.

Not many
restaurants are
willing to
participate at this
moment. ( not
enough staff and a
difficult time in
general) - we have 8
participants.

Ground 8 is conducting short research into support
for a Cooperative Food Hall: a place where a group of
people (1000) buy local and sustainable food and are
also co-owners. (preferably in Schalkwijk).Aim:
research into support for a Cooperative Food Hall. It
is assumed that there is sufficient support.

Foodlab uses the 'Train the trainer' program to train
neighbours with a passion for cooking to give children
sustainable and healthy cooking classes in their own
neighbourhood. The aim is for more children to have
access to sustainable and healthy food and to
develop an affinity with it. The
assumption/hypothesis is that this training program
works like an oil slick and that more and more people
will participate. Contributes to Secure healthy and

‘ Wij telen groente’ (We grow vegetables) and farm
‘De Herkomst’ (The Origin) puts pigs for natural
grazing. The pigs are ultimately slaughtered and
consumed locally, for example by the leading group
Circular Restaurants. In Cities 2030, it will be
investigated whether pigs can be used for natural
grazing in more places in Haarlem. The aim is to
stimulate biodiversity on land/fertile soil. Contributes
to 'Proct and preserve natural resources' and
'Enhance circularity and local food belts'. Working
Groups: Waste, Ecosystem Services, Production. The
hypothesis and assumption is that this compost
ensures better soil quality and more production of
vegetables and biodiversity. It is also assumed that
residual flows from other stakeholders can be used
usefully.

The ‘Wilde Oogsten (Wild Harvest) is investigating
how biodiversity can be increased by means of
vegetable garden techniques (regenerative
agriculture) and cooperation with livestock farming
(for natural grazing and tillage of the land). This soil is
more resistant to drought or heavy rainfall. The aim is
to stimulate biodiversity on land/fertile soil.

De Plukweide (Picking flower garden) grows oyster
mushrooms on wood chips (residual material) from
the Maak site as a basis for compost. In addition, they
are conducting tests for an even more fertile
compost with worms and food leftovers in Bokashi
containers. The aim is to stimulate biodiversity on

Oro Wolkorrel (Oro wool) granules make plant food
granules from wool for which there is no other
destination. In Cities 2030, Oro is exploring
opportunities for scaling up. The aim is for the
residual wool product to be used on a much larger
scale as plant food. Contributes to 'protect and
preserve natural resources'. Working groups: Waste
and processing. The hypothesis and assumption is
that grain can be used on a larger scale in urban
agriculture.
