Cape Jourimain Nature Centre

Cape Jourimain Nature Centre, located in New Brunswick, is the last stop on the highway to the Confederation Bridge, which connects to Prince Edward Island.

Since there are hundreds of visitors daily during the tourist season, innovative ways are needed to accommodate Centre visitors and protect surrounding habitats. Rainwater is collected and used for washing hands, watering plants, and moistening the Clivus composting toilet systems. Greywater from the kitchen, lavatories, and maintenance sink is passed through a bio-filter before being returned to the surrounding landscape. End-products from the Centre’s nine composting systems are used as on-site fertilizers.
