Approximately 58% of food produced is wasted throughout the food supply system in Canada, and of that food approximately 60% is from fruit and vegetables despite the Canada Food Guide recommending half of your diet should come from fruit and vegetables!

About half of food produced is lost in Canada and we cannot afford to allow this to continue! Take a look at this article on some grassroots attempts that were made to create a circular economy in regards to farming and let us know what you think! frontiersin.org/journals/susta…

Many of us are working hard to #BuyCanadian, but Canada's Food Guide gives us a good reminder: have at least half your diet fruits and vegetables, eat lots of whole grains, drink water, and make use of a variety of proteins such as nuts and beans. #food #healthy

Feeling the impact of no longer being an early twenty-something? We feel you. Switching to a #plantbased diet is not only much cheaper, it's also a great way to get key fibre and nutrients in your diet to keep you healthy - no matter your age!"

Breaking Stereotypes - One Bite At A Time Friendship can cross many backgrounds and political lines. Now more than ever, it's important to be able to break bread and barriers to discuss our food system and it's impact on the environment.

Navigating US Tariffs For Canadian Food Companies It's not just us #canadians at the supermarket buying non US food products, larger Canadian food companies are also looking on how to navigate the US tariffs, which is often by buying #local"

With exponential increases in #foodinsecurity and #foodlossandwaste costing Canada around $58 billion dollars each year, the last thing we need is our food companies overproducing food even more. But that is just what is happening due to the US tariffs..

Opportunities Wasted by US Tariffs Imagine: plastic free, biodegradable packaging in all packaged food products, no food loss or waste throughout our food system, and more! These are the innovation opportunities we could be missing out on due to the displaced attention.
