Eat Smart, Waste Less
Join ESWL staff at this fun community event! Food waste prevention in the home has been a major focus for the City of Portland’s community engagement for a number of years. During spring and summer 2019 Portland’s Climate Action Now: Save Your Food is merging with the existing multi-jurisdiction Eat Smart Waste Less (ESWL).
ESWL focuses on three waste prevention strategies:
meal planning and shopping lists to buy only what is needed,
proper storage to keep food fresh and tasty,
and ways to make sure food at home is eaten before going to waste.
Families can also take the Eat Smart, Waste Less Challenge. The first step is to pledge to practice the simple step of smart storage by keeping your fruits and vegetables fresh.
