Farm-to-No Food Waste Event

Help us celebrate Food Waste Prevention Week!

Food Waste Prevention Week (April 7 - 13th) is a national effort to bring attention to the need and strategies to reduce our individual and collective food waste.

Join Homegrown Hillsborough, City of Tampa Solid Waste, Hillsborough County Solid Waste, Renuable, and other community partners at Meacham Urban Farm during their weekly Saturday market to learn about various ways you can prevent food waste.

Community organizations will have information tables set up and will be ready to answer your questions. You'll have the opportunity to purchase local produce, learn about local efforts, and participate in a "Food Waste Prevention" scavenger hunt and win a prize!

Meacham Urban Farms offers organic produce alongside a selection of other local, organic items. You’ll find other local organic produce, 100% grass-fed beef, local organic meats, farm-fresh eggs, honey, sourdough bread, and pantry staples—all sourced from trusted local farms.

Interested in tabling at the event and promoting your organization's effort to reduce food waste? Contact Diane at [email protected].
