Farmers Market Tips & Tricks

From bringing your own containers to shopping seasonal produce, these tips for your farmers market routine will reduce both food and plastic waste.

Plan Ahead: Plan meals and take inventory of what you already have so you only buy what you need. BYO Bags and Containers: Use reusable bags and glass containers for your fruits and veggies. Opt for Packaging-Free Options: Go for loose produce! If there is a container, whip out your bag to use instead, then hand the container back to the vendor. Buy Seasonal: Opt for fruits and veggies that are in season to reduce the environmental impact and ensure freshness. Store Properly: Storing food properly is the best way to keep it fresh for longer! Rotate Stock: Place newer produce at the back of your fridge and use older food first. Freeze Excess: Put surplus produce or batch cooked meals in the freezer to use later! Be sure to label and date leftovers.
