Mashed Banana Bongo Bash: coming together to tackle food waste

  • The Food Co-op Shop and Cafe 3 Kingsley Street Canberra, ACT, 2601 Australia (map)

Do you want to improve your food waste avoidance habits? Come hang with us at Mashed Banana Bongo Bash, a fun and friendly evening to learn and share food waste avoidance strategies.

You've probably heard food waste tips like "freeze your bread" and "meal plan", but we want to dive deeper. Together, we want to explore strategies that encourage you to get creative, rethink your lifestyle choices and challenge the way you think about and consume food (and leftovers).

The evening will feature a panel of amazing speakers, live music and samplers of surprising and inspiring food waste recipes.

Speakers:

  • Ingrid Lee, Executive Chef, Two Before Ten

  • Serina Bird, The Joyful Frugalista **local podcaster extraordinaire**

  • Yvette McKay, ACT Government, Love Food Hate Waste campaign

  • Brook Clinton, Executive Officer of SEE-Change and Founder of Capital Scraps (community composting)

Come along for a night of knowledge-sharing, learning and scrumptious food and music!

Tickets are cheaper for Food Coop and SEE-Change members, but please get in contact if you would like to attend at a further discounted rate.

Tickets available here.
