Food Waste Reduction Workshop at Verdani Space At Verdani Partners, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do—including how we think about food waste. This week, we had the pleasure of hosting a Food Waste Reduction Workshop for our team at our headquarters, led by Jessica Ullyott from Nature Needs SD. Jessica shared eye-opening insights on how much food waste we generate daily and the environmental impact of organic waste in landfills, along with practical strategies to reduce food waste at home and in our communities. Some key takeaways included: ?? Meal planning to minimize food waste and save money ?? Composting options, from backyard and vermicomposting to community drop-off sites ?? Using the Too Good to Go app to rescue surplus food from local businesses ?? Making the most of food scraps with scrappy recipes like those from Zero Waste Chef, Plant You, and Spicy Moustache To make sustainability fun and hands-on, we ended the session by making delicious protein balls - a great way to repurpose simple, wholesome ingredients while reducing waste! We also explored local resources to support sustainable food habits, including: ?
