It’s Earth Day today, a worldwide event involving over a billion people in nearly 200 countries. The day's dedicated to raising awareness of environmental issues and encouraging action to protect the planet. We’re all about action - that’s why we’re called Exeter Food Action! But as well as taking action to ensure that good, nutritious food gets to people who need it, in doing so we prevent food from going to waste. Last year, for example, we distributed over 70 tonnes, roughly the weight of 10 adult African elephants! #earthday #foodwasteaction #foodwaste #foodwastereduction (fb)

EFA's van driver and volunteer coordinator, Wendy, and volunteer, Pete, had something to smile about during this year's Food Waste Action Week. Here they are with food donated by Coastal Recycling, one of our many local friends who, between them, provided us with 367 kgs of food, equivalent to 875 meals. Thanks everyone! #foodwasteactionweek2025 #foodwaste #foodwastereduction (fb)
