Looking to cut food waste in your kitchen and make the most of every ingredient?

Join City of South Perth and Switch Your Thinking for a practical workshop designed to help you cut down on food waste at home and get more value from your cooking and shopping habits!

In this engaging session, Laura Monisse will explore why food waste happens, how it impacts your budget and the environment, and practical ways to make change right in your own kitchen.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why Waste Matters: What food waste means for your household’s costs and the environment.

  • Smart Planning: Tips for planning meals and shopping so you buy only what you will use

  • Use It All: How to make the most of produce — from leafy tops to peels — and avoid tossing edible parts.

  • Storage Hacks: Simple storage techniques to keep food fresher longer and reduce spoilage.

  • Creative Leftovers: Ideas for turning leftovers into new meals instead of the bin.

Whether you’re a busy cook, budget-minded or sustainability-focused, this workshop will give you practical tools to reduce waste and save money while making your kitchen more efficient.
