RE: Free the Food #14 ✔ | One Man's Trash Another Man's Treasure!
That is a truly impressive amount of free food you are saving from waste stream.
Are there many other dumpster divers in your city (Gothenburg)?
Do the supermarkets make any effort to stop you getting their waste food? Or are you saving their consciences for them...
We're working on many levels at the moment but most stores are only greenwashing but we'll get it under control in 2018! :)
Lots of divers in Gothenburg!
Diving seems to be the way to go if you have access.
I have worked on a couple of community projects here in the UK where we have tried to get supermarkets to donate their waste food for free food projects.
They have generally refused quoting 'health and safety' issues (!!) and instead offer us vouchers to use in their stores.
Small independent stores have been fine.
Keep on diving...
Yup they have many excuses why not to give the food away but we're having more luck here lately! :)
