Together, We Can End Food Waste

Together , We Can End Food Waste

Our mission is to create a world where no food goes to waste. Join us in building sustainable solutions that make a difference.

Our Mission and Vision

Our planning team represents a variety of stakeholders across the food, business, government and environmental education sectors that share a passion for reducing food waste to address food insecurity in our communities, save families money, and support a healthier environment. 

So what's the (short) backstory?

In 2020, inspired by California’s Food Waste Prevention Week, our Florida team launched Florida Food Waste Prevention Week. Since its successful debut in 2021, the movement has grown to include over 600 partners across 48 states and 11 countries by 2023. We’re proud to drive change, reduce food waste, save money, and address food insecurity.

The Team Fighting Against Food Waste

Our team, united by a passion for stopping food waste, brings diverse skills to educate and organize communities.
