Action Plan


Room 4 came up with an action plan to reduce food wastage. Here are some ideas:



1. Shop smart
2. Buy exactly what you need.
3. Be realistic.
4. Buy funny-looking produce.
5. Have a Plan B.
6. Practice FIFO. It stands for First In, First Out.
7. Monitor what you throw away.
8. Designate one dinner each week as a “use-it-up” meal.
9. Eat leftovers!
10. Use it all.
11. Store better.
12. Repurpose leftovers scraps.
13. Check the fridge.
14. Preserve produce.
15. Donate what you won’t use.
16. Donate the gross stuff, too! Many farmers happily accept food scraps
17. Store food properly in the fridge.
18. Store things properly in the freezer.
19. Can it.
20. Pickle it.
22. Understand expiration dates.
23. Compost!
