Internationale Festival, Italy
If you don’t know Internationale magazine, check it out here.
I was fortunate enough to be asked to talk on a panel about food waste at this years Internationale Festival in Ferrara, Italy. Apart from being nervous about talking at an event full of legit authors, journalists, professors, researchers etc. from around the world, I was so so excited and humbled to be part of such an amazing annual…

EU Conference
On Friday, Landfull took part in the EU Ecowaste4food conference in Cornwall, with the likes of Recycle Devon, The Real Junk Food Project Plymouth and many more… Amazing, inspiring people and lots of pointers to food waste ventures around Europe! Thanks for the invite Emma 🙂
Last week, Landfull also attended the Southampton Sustainability Open Mic – an evening of mini talks sharing ideas for…

Printed! The books are here and printed! Copies are being sent out to food waste projects and recipe contributors as we speak 🙂
Let printing commence!
The book is now (finally) in print! 1 month late – I had hoped to print at the end of December rather than the end of January – but everything is feeling positive and all a bit difficult to believe. I have just finished my last stint of proof reading and ensuring all of the design fits each page nicely. Although reading my words back makes me cringe at times, I am happy with how it has come…

The book will be sent out for Christmas! With a full time summer job of festival catering, then walking straight into another full-time kitchen job in Southampton, I am trying to find the spare time to do editing after receiving my first physical proof in the post.
The writing is nearly complete!
The writing is nearly complete!
We are so close to the end now. I’ve been spending the last couple days sat indoors putting the final bits together: writing extra thoughts; proofreading and editing everything; ensuring I’m making sense and essentially condensing my previous rambles down to an affordable size – the cost of printing is sadly enormous, already resulting in minimal copies for this first time round.
I’m delighted…

Wild Food Foraging
Recipe cooking!
Yesterday was mega. All of the recipes were finally cooked and photographed for the book. I’m so happy with the variation of dishes – so many flavours, colours and waste-kicking ideas! Waking up this morning feels interesting… I’m not hungry that’s for sure, but I am realising that this journey is coming to an end. Today I transition into the final chapter of Landfull’s production… it’ll be a…

This week I’ve gleaned twice. Once in Hereford, and once near Preston. As always, the days were filled with wonderful people and nourishing chatter. Apples and onions were abundant – and all of them rejected from UK supermarkets. I was able to capture a few images for both Feedback and the book, so I now only have a few more visits to organise before I can move into the final stage of editing. This book should soon be going to print!

The UK Food Waste Cookery Book is finally coming together!
The UK Food Waste Cookery Book is finally coming together!
Landfull is snapshot of food waste activity in the UK, taking form as a community cookery book. It will include recipes submitted from food waste activists all round the country, highlighting abundance, resistance and collaboration. Back in early 2015, Louiza completed a 2-month road trip of the UK, venturing the land to connect, learn and discover active groups reducing food waste. She…

The UK’s First Food Waste Fuelled Running Team!

The UK’s First Food Waste Fuelled Running Team!
On Sunday, Curb completed the Southampton half-marathon, pushing our trolley full of food waste across the finish line in 2:12!
As you may well be aware, we’ve been working solidly on our Race Against Waste campaign for just over a month. We’ve had 8 runners around the city, training for 4 weeks, in order to run 13.1 miles – and all whilst converting their diets to nearly 100% food ‘unfit for…

One of our Race Against Waste runners reflects on the lessons the month long food waste challenge has taught her.
To control my greed
I love food and often ignore what my stomach is telling my brain in order to carry on eating, but there has been so much food in my house during this challenge that if I behaved as usual I would have to roll the half marathon, not run it.
To get creative in the kitchen
Not being able to choose what food appeared in the bins each week meant we had to get creative in the kitchen by replacing ingredients with whatever we had in the fridge or devising dishes we’d never eaten before. All manner of breakfasts replaced my usual muesli and yoghurt, from ham and mustard croissants to banana pancakes with apple sauce.
That so much food waste is processed food
Which makes the fact that it’s considered ‘unfit for human consumption’ even harder to swallow. Processed food is pumped full of preservatives and wrapped in plastic to make it last a long time, so there really is no need for it to end up in a bin a few weeks after it’s made.
That there’s a whole lotta plastic waste too
Because a lot of the food was processed, it typically arrived in plastic packaging. At least when food is thrown away it decomposes – albeit slowly and while releasing methane when dumped in landfill – but plastic never decomposes. Most plastic in Southampton is incinerated by the Council, even though in theory all plastic is recyclable. I can’t bring myself to throw all this plastic away so now have a crate full of plastic sitting in my garden waiting for a recycling solution.
That I don’t miss cheese as much as I thought I would
I have toyed with the idea of veganism but the barrier I don’t think I could get over is abstaining from cheese. This month has shown me that it’s not that high a barrier after all. We received a small piece of stilton in week 2 which sat in the fridge like a treasured possession for over a week before we finally used a tiny amount. Normally at least one shelf of our fridge would be taken up with all manner of cheeses and we’d be going at them every day, but I haven’t missed cheese gorging at all.
“5 Things I’ve Learned From Our 1 Month Food Waste Challenge” One of our Race Against Waste runners reflects on the lessons the month long food waste challenge has taught her.
Race Against Waste!
As you may be aware, the Race Against Waste is back! This Spring, Curb launched the UK’s FIRST Food-Waste-Fuelled Running Team! This means 8 runners, completing 4 Weeks of training, on 100% surplus food… to then finish the 13.1 miles of Southampton’s 2016 Half Marathon!
As a local and National campaign, we are continually addressing the failures in our food industry that inevitably force masses of edible produce to landfill. Approximately 1.3 billion tonnes of perfectly good food is systematically lost or wasted, so our running team is here to highlight & challenge this travesty. Eating only food deemed ‘UNFIT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION’, we hope to demonstrate the nutritional content that is so needlessly discarded, and show another fun way of fighting food waste!
10am, Sunday 24th April.
Let’s give food waste a run for it’s money!

Spiced Roast Swede Soup
Spiced Roast Swede Soup
A recipe from Rhia, running our Race Against Waste!
Despite having lived in Scotland for nearly five years where swede is part of the national dish, I had never cooked one, so wasn’t entirely sure what to do with the five we received last week as part of our food waste delivery. My mum came to the rescue and suggested roasting and blitzing them into a soup with some cumin, she got a couple in…
