Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and was successful in learning more about soil regeneration! What did you guys think? Any ideas for where we want to go with our next project connecting to that?

So for our next project, we’re going to be focusing on soil regeneration and learning about it. I definitely don’t want to stop with the food waste work, but it can be difficult to do lots of things virtually since we’re all from different places. So, we’ll focus on connecting food waste to soil regeneration. To start, try and…[Read more]

That’s a great idea! We can discuss how we will carry out this project, and see how we can help.

It was incredible, (you can check it out on youtube if you’d like) and we learned about soil regeneration. Would anyone be interested in including that as a focus in our next project, while connecting it to food waste?

I actually started composting in my yard last summer and have continued doing it this summer so it gave me a good look into how much food we really throw away! I think composting is a great idea for anyone to start doing and I will start learning more about how much food stores…[Read more]

For me, I saw how much of the food we threw out could be composted, and on a local scale I saw some really disheartening things. I live in San Diego by the way, and not only were food scraps being thrown out, but food was…[Read more]

And that begins with learning about your own food waste. So something you can do at home to start, is just take note of every time you throw any kind of consumable item away. Or, any organic source that could potentially be composted. Say you have lots food, and that’s…[Read more]

I think it is great that you would like members from all over the country! Adelaide, I would like to hear what ideas you have for projects that we can do even if we are not in person. I can’t wait to connect with more people to make a change and hopefully we can get started on a project! Thanks!

So excited to be here! Thank you so much Anna for your update! Our school also has a composting program, but I love the idea of chicken feed! Let me know how it goes. Apologies for not being active, our group has been working on a previous project in person. Does anyone have any requests/things they’d be interested in focusing on for…[Read more]

My school wastes a lot of food because we always throw a bunch away. Our town also has a lot of chicken-owners, so some of my friends and I are trying to set up a program where chicken-owners can pick up the food. The rest of the food we can compost for our school garden, or other gardeners can pick it up. I think it would be…[Read more]
