Starhaven Retreat has improved on it's green credentials rising from Gold status to the highest Platinum status. In order to achieve this, we improved on several aspects such as recycling practices by incorporating a worm farm to reduce our bio waste and create fertiliser for or organic herb & vegetable garden. Switching to greener detergents was also a contributing factor.

Although having reached the the ultimate award, we will continue to strive to improve our green practices to save resources and keep the beautiful Bellarine Peninsula a better environment for the next generation.
