Programs & Events

Our workshop will grow your skills to implement policies and practices for your congregation to divert food from the waste stream! We will have speakers from Zero Waste Sonoma, Extra Food, and local congregations who are already implementing protocols to reduce their food waste. Workshop agenda includes:

• Learn about Sonoma County nonprofits that come to your site to pick-up edible food, or drop-off extra food;
• Training on food safety & best protocols for accepting and distributing healthy unspoiled edible food that will be diverted from the waste stream;
• Technical assistance on how to develop internal policies and implement systems to minimize edible food waste; and
• Resources to apply for mini-grants through Interfaith Food to support food recovery work!
