Support local! Buying directly from farmers or farmer’s markets supports local growers and reduces transport and storage emissions. Plant your own food garden at home or at school and encourage everyone to get involved. If you don’t have space for a garden, planting a variety of wild flowers and herbs in pots will help support bees and butterflies. Support organic, refuse plastic containers, buy only what food you need and compost any leftover vegetable scraps. Volunteer your time at local clinics or community centre gardens, or donate seeds and garden tools to those in need.
