Following its success in several Canadian municipalities, the Eco5 is coming to Australia with the potential to drastically transform how we dispose of food waste, too. 

Canadian schools are transforming how food waste impacts the environment with the Food Cycler Eco5, and Australia is on track to follow suit.

The Eco5 is the food waste dehydrating appliance that has taken Canada by storm, and now, it’s available in Australia, too. 

Each year billions of kilograms of food waste are sent to landfill around the world, but fortunately, there are other, more sustainable options available. 

Three local businesses have diverted more than 30 tonnes of food waste away from landfill after participating in a Bega Valley Shire Council program to dehydrate kitchen scraps and leftovers.

To battle food waste, small changes in your everyday household routine can make a huge difference. Making mindful decisions in the grocery store to buy less and plan ahead can help eliminate the food waste created in your kitchen. We've put together a couple templates to help everyone make those small but significant steps for a more sustainable routine.
