Reduce Food Waste
If you want to reduce food waste in your home, school, or community, but also want to commit to more than simply composting, you can! In your home, meal planning and composting can go a long way, but in your community, larger projects might be in order. Luckily, there are many resources out there giving examples of things that have already been done to reduce city-wide, school-wide, and home food waste. There may even be groups in your community already working on it, like gleaning groups and food shares. Take a look at some of these resources and start planning how you can work with these folks, or start your own project!
