Food Waste

Fareham Lions Club Food Waste

Normally the last slice of bread or the crust might be thrown away. Or that over ripe banana discarded.

But did you know that this type of food waste is wasteful, not just on the environment but also on your pocket. You can turn some of these ‘wasteful’ foods into more food! Saving money in the process.

In 2018 we were inspired to think about the facts of food waste and in return think about the way we can reduce these facts by just doing simple things. Since then we have discovered other ways to reuse and grow our own veg / fruit; when to compost; when it is actually safe to still eat. In the process, it has saved money spent and wasted on food we never eat.
