Flip your relationship with food waste for good with Anna The Urban Nanna.
Join permaculture and sustainability educator, Anna The Urban Nanna, to learn why and how to flip your relationship with food waste for good, by adopting ‘scraptastic’ approaches in the kitchen.
Each year, approximately 250 kg of food per household ends up in Australian landfills, making food waste one of the top three contributors to global carbon emissions.
This free, in-person presentation will teach you how to make the most of your weekly shop, helping not only to reduce food waste but also lower your grocery bills.
It includes an in-depth exploration of scraptastic cooking options, a display showcasing various scraptastic creations, examples of helpful books and resources, and the chance to sample a selection of scraptastic dishes.
Free event. Bookings essential. Tea and coffee provided - BYO mug or reusable cup!
