For each day during the food waste tracking week, record your food waste. This action accepts one entry per day, so be sure to enter one total for food waste across all of your meals, or weigh all of your food waste once at the end of each day. Please use ounces for unit of measurement.

I will compost my food scraps.

Create a shopping list with specific recipes and meals in mind. Purchase only what's on the list when you do groceries.

Watch this video and get a glimpse of what is actually getting thrown away in our trash cans and dumpsters.

Place cut carrots and celery in jars filled with water to keep them fresh, crisp and easy to grab for up to a week. I will properly store 5 veggie snacks.

Freeze fruits nearing their end and use in smoothies. You can even try freezing avocados (see Resource)!
