Seeking examples of schools tackling food waste

Greeting, MI Farm to School Network!

 

I’m reaching out to see if there are any schools or districts out there that are tackling food waste. Last night, the Our Table series at MSU focused on food waste, and there were many folks interested in exploring the role of educators in teaching children the value of food and the need to reduce food waste.

 

I would love to talk to anyone using local food and/or smarter lunchroom principles to help reduce food waste and highlight the roll schools are already playing in addressing this issue!

 

Please email me at harperab@msu.edu

 

Best,

Abby
