Welcome to
MIDDLESBROUGH Environment City
Food often goes to landfill: It’s a sad fact of life, and one that costs the planet just as much as it costs our wallets. Supermarkets, if they have too much food, will often let a lot of good food go to waste: Food that is perfectly edible and can be used to fill bellies instead of bins!
We managed to collect a lot of pallets from P.D Ports, filled with tons of biscuits! Thanks to P.D Ports and our lovely staff (Pictured here are James and Rachael, hard at work!), these surplus biscuits won’t be clogging up landfill and contributing to excess waste: We collected the pallets and now they’re out in our local networks to be distributed to people! Cheers, we’ll raise a cuppa to that!

This #StopFoodWasteDay, check out the most wasted foods in the UK, and see if you can do your part in helping to prevent food waste for your wallet and for the environment! Our Eco Shop helps to redirect good food from heading to landfill straight from supermarkets into your pantries, but make sure not to waste it when it's there!Understanding what foods you waste is key to reducing the food waste you produce. Here in the UK, the five most wasted foods are bread, potatoes, milk, bananas, and salad & vegetables.
If you want to reduce your food waste, a great place to start is making a list of the foods that you throw away most often. Then, you can make sure you buy less of those items, or freeze them before they go bad.
