I will source 1 meal(s) from local producers each day. This could include signing up for a local CSA, buying from a farmer's market, visiting a food co-op, foraging with a local group, or growing my own ingredients.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning how to differentiate between sell by, use by, and best by dates.

I will use smaller plates and/or serve smaller portions when dishing out food.

I will recycle all materials that are accepted by local haulers or drop stations in my community.

I will buy from organic and local farmers who have made the decision to not use synthetic nitrogen fertilizers.

I will spend at least 15 minutes learning about the need for more regenerative agriculture.

I will spend at least 15 minutes watching videos and/or reading about the environmental benefits of silvopasture.

If I have to buy paper products, I will only purchase products made from post-consumer recycled paper for my home or office.
