Did you know?

96 percent of the food we throw away ends up in landfills 👉 Food decomposes in landfills, producing methane, a potent greenhouse gas that contributes fo climate change.

#WeAllWin #RooUp #Enactus #KansasCity

Fruits and vegetables account for 39 percent of the food thrown away in the US.

To minimize the amount of fresh produce we toss every day, a few easy tricks can have a huge effect on the environment as well as our food expenses!

With Yoli Tortilleria‘s help, we were able to do a manual recovery and recently donated 60 lbs of fresh tortillas to Shelter KC 👏🏻
