A climate action evanston program

Eat all of it! Waste not!

Food waste is a major contributor to methane caused climate change. Reducing food waste starts with what we buy. Make a meal plan, and stick to your grocery list. If food does go bad, consider Evanston's “Tag-along” compost program, composting kitchen waste in a yard cart. Alternatively, create your own compost.

You're Needed! Here Are Some Involvement Opportunities

Tour Our Food Forest

Watch for tours of the Food Forest in 2023 in the events list above. In the meantime, you are always welcome to visit on your own.

Take a New Gardener Class

New Gardener education classes will be rolled out throughout the year and class registration for each session will be open to all. They will be included in our above Upcoming Events list!

We have both planning and execution roles for all four of our initiatives: our demonstration food forest, produce sharing program, citywide education, and raised bed gardening.
