In March, we announced the winners to our Use Food Scraps Essay contest. We received some amazing suggestions and thanks to Kenn Webb of the Solid Waste Authority, the judge’s favorite essays won cash prizes. We are currently working on a poster that brings together all the wonderful suggestions received so that our community can learn from each other and pursue suggestions towards an end to food in our landfill. How exciting. We hope to give each person who submitted an essay a copy of the poster and plan to share it with others in the community. We look forward to unveiling the poster and thank everyone who is making this possible!
Putting the suggestions from our Use Food Scraps essay contest to use.
