I will organize my refrigerator to maximize shelf life based on the temperature and humidity of different spots.

I will take a fridge and pantry inventory to stay up to date with what I have at home before I go grocery shopping.

I will scale down the recipe of a meal to make just the right amount for my household of 6 so we eat everything up.

I will store vegetable scraps or bones in my freezer and use them to make veggie stock or bone broth. I will make 2 batches.

I will freeze leftover food items or meals for later. The freezer is my food-waste-reduction friend!

I will try a new method of food preservation, such as canning, pickling, drying or making jam. I will try 1 preservation techniques.

I will volunteer 2 hours to support existing community food waste reduction and recovery efforts like gleaning or for a food bank.

To keep berries fresh, place them on top of a paper towel in a sealed container to absorb excess moisture and reduce chances of molding. I will properly store 2 packs of berries.
