Take some time to get acquainted with the website.

To report your food waste, create a password for this site. You will be asked to sign-in to complete the weigh-in survey.

  • Weekly Activities: Each Monday & Wednesday, we will post content, tips, and what's happening.
  • Group Discussion: Each Monday, we'll post a new question to get the conversation going. Week 1 we're asking you to introduce yourself to the group. Can't wait to meet you!
  • Post a Photo!: Visit this section to share ideas about what is working for you (or not working). Post a picture of your set-up, write a tip on how you organize your fridge, ask for advice, etc.
  • Weekly Survey: Report how much food was wasted in at your home each week. Hopefully we see the numbers drop as we go!
