If global food waste was a country, it would be the 3rd largest omitter of greenhouse gases. The good news is that food waste is easy - it just takes some planning.

Here are some ways to plan and help reduce food waste:

1. Roughly 40% of the food we produce in the United States never gets eaten. That’s staggering!

2. Simply change the size of your plate.....it can prevent you from taking too much food which might end up in the trash.

3. Plan better when going to the grocery store. Look at expiration dates. Only purchase what you need.

Here’s a link to a printable option to help you plan your grocery store trips: https://noshingwiththenolands.com/how-to-make-an-organized-grocery-list/
