When decluttering, remember to consider re-homing, repairing, and repurposing items. (Tip: old shirts can replace paper towels or handkerchiefs!) And going forward, mindful consumption can prevent clutter before it starts! 😉 https://t.co/jrCxdiop0f

This year I aim to be more conscious of the waste my consumption creates. This photo was taken after 1 of 2 meals on a long haul flight and, in this case, it was impossible for me to reject the single-use plastics #dailywaste #gogreen2019

Plastic-wrapped veggies, packaging-heavy frozen meals, poor-quality produce, and long checkout lines make TJs less deserving of the hype it often receives https://t.co/V8TYUfuCU5

@BostonGlobe very disappointed that your election guide is blocked by your paywall. Voters need to be informed about the issues and people they will be electing in a few days. Putting up a paywall is just another hurdle to dissuade voters from showing up to the polls on #nov6

Cooking shows lately have been so male-centric and alienating so THANK YOU @CiaoSamin for using your series to not only highlight your insightful techniques but to also showcase WOMEN cooks+food experts from around the world!!#SaltFatAcidHeat

My mother is an ARTIST. She made these beautiful Easter eggs solely by using the dye produced from boiling onion skin and made the designs on them using fresh herbs around the house.

Spent the morning photographing cleanup and spring preparation at @eastiefarm , a community garden space in East Boston. In a few months this place will be flourishing! #UrbanFarmer #communitygarden

Organanoponico Vivero Alamar, a sustainable farm in Cuba, aims to provide food and jobs for the people without the use of petrochemical fertilisers #SustainableAgriculture #farming https://t.co/3qtZdrpFJh

People said founders of Vivero Alamar were crazy. Today: 150 employees, 25 acres of urban farm, founders all retired. - Isis Salcines #UFC2018 #MDAR @ufiboston

Fun food fact: there is only about 3 days worth of food in any given community (this supply is constantly replenished by trucks bringing in foods from farms/factories) #UFC2018 #mdar #foodfact

[Lala Thaddeus @LalaEatsLocal]

One thing that keeps us from relying on our local food systems is our modern expectation to have any and all produce anytime we want (e.g. Tomatoes in winter, avocados and bananas in the northern hemisphere, etc) #ufc2018 #localagriculture #foodsustainability #localfood

[Lala Thaddeus @LalaEatsLocal]

There's value in de-branding locally-grown foods so they become the norm for everyone as opposed to a luxury for the few #ufc2018 #localfood #urbanfarming #SustainableAgriculture

[Lala Thaddeus @LalaEatsLocal]

Alternative farming, such as freight farming, allows us to reclaim small plots of land to produce plenty of food in heavily-populated urban areas #ufc2018 @FreightFarms #CornerStalkFarm

Binge watching @uglydelicious and I've been saying this for years! Shawarma, tacos, ssam. So many cultures have a unique meat-and-goodies-wrapped-in-bread dish
