 In this session, participants will explore the journey of food from farm to table and understand the significant impact of household food waste. We'll discuss how to identify spoiled food, read food labels effectively, and share practical tips to reduce waste, such as using "ugly" produce and reviving old foods. The session will also include a reflection exercise on personal food waste habits. Presented by Foodsharing Ottawa
