Education is a key component of Waste Less Solutions' mission and work in Utah communities. We speak at various local events to educate the public on the need to reduce our food waste, as Americans currently throw away approximately 40% of the food we bring home.
We also host various classes to help people reduce their food waste. Our current schedule can be viewed on our events page.
