TOO GOOD
TO WASTE

A story about Tasmanian food

In Tasmania we grow, cook, and eat delicious food.

We also waste it at an alarming rate.

 

Food is the single largest contributor to landfill, costing Australia $36.6 billion a year.
We can change that, one meal at a time.

To help Tasmanians save food and eat well, we’ve partnered with some of our State’s finest chefs and passionate producers
to create helpful videos and tasty recipes. To learn more watch the episodes and the short film linked below.
