Two dollars of scraps you already own and a jar of something green and loud that will improve eggs, toast, potatoes, and one bad Tuesday. A week in the fridge under oil. Forever in an ice tray.
There's a particular grace to standing at a counter at six and turning the discard pile into supper.

Everything you were about to throw out, made into the best thing on the table.
Carrot tops. Radish greens. The woody stems off parsley and cilantro and basil. The pale celery leaves nobody eats. Wash them, pack the processor tight, one garlic clove, a handful of whatever nut or seed is cheapest, salt, lemon, enough oil to make it move. Ninety seconds. Done. #Cooking #FoodAsMedicine #ZeroWaste #Recipes #Frugal #Herbs #Kitchen #Pesto #Vegetarian #Community #MutualAid #Solidarity

One of my 6 bush cucumber plants, growing out of old car tires. Tires are lined with rocks & wood chips & filled with homemade soil mix. All of the plants have cucumbers growing on them. This one has 6 cukes growing from it. You can see 3 of them in this photo.

40% of the food produced in the US goes uneaten 🗑️ — nearly $3,000/year, per family of four.

5 habits that fix most of it:
📝 Inventory before shopping
📅 Plan meals
❄️ Freeze before it spoils
🏷️ Label leftovers
🍲 One clean-out night a week

Food waste = 8-10% of global emissions.

This afternoon, I'm straw mulching around gardens & making some in ground vermicomposting stations in mixed crops bed. I'll be using takeout soup containers to make my in ground vermicomposting stations. If I can easily make them from materials in my home/recycling bin - there is no need to buy them.

Students Are Turning Cafeteria “Waste” Into Community Nourishment

🥫 Cabarrus County: Kids are learning to sort untouched food from true scraps, transforming school culture around food, responsibility, and care for neighbors.

🌍 These small daily actions ripple outward: less methane from landfills, more meals for families, and a new generation seeing food as a shared resource rather than disposable surplus.

🤝 Student‑led habits can reshape systems, reduce waste, and strengthen community resilience.

Ça illustre aussi un truc que je disais déjà y'a deux ans : le mouvement zéro déchet a disparu des médias, des mots et des préoccupations, mais ses principes (refuser, déconsommer, réemployer) et son approche (ACV, critique du recyclage) se sont normalisées. Au-delà des apparences, c'est une victoire idéologique massive du mouvement. https://blog.whoz.me/zerowaste/le-mouvement-zero-dechet-a-t-il-disparu/

Paid post just released today, providing a framework for starting a zero-waste lifestyle using the kitchen as a starting point!

We give a thorough examination of what our key waste-producing habits likely are and several concrete solutions for each -- considering which are going to ultimately reduce waste at all points in the process and not just help us reduce the amount *we* throw in the trash.

Please remember that every paid subscription helps us keep the ranch running in lieu of other income, so that $5 a month means a whole lot to us! If you can, we hope you consider it. But either way, I hope those of you already paying get value from this one!
